Table confirms basket made

Had the following this week:

I am at C and call blocking foul on V, staying with the action all the way to the floor. Since I did not see the ball go in I asked T if basket was good. He says no. I report the foul and award two shots. After the first shot (missed) I hear V coach ask "why is he getting another one if it went in" and at about the exact same time the H coach is saying "hey, we didn't get our two points". I call crew together and apparently neither the T or L actually looked up to watch the ball. Since both coaches agree the basket was good, the R consults the scorer to verify that he saw the ball go in and then decided based on all of the information available to award the basket. Using the table helped the R ultimately get the call right.
