The question was whether the shot would count. The real question (and answer) is whether the ball is live when it goes through the basket if a double foul is committed while the shooter has the ball in his hand. The answer is no, it is not, the ball becomes dead when a teammate of the player with the ball commits a foul. In the end, you're right, but it's also important to understand the rule basis for the decision.
