I'd say that it isn't conclusive from even that view. It was incredibly close. The camera position, while above the basket appears to be more above the center point of the basket. This was so close, you'd need a camera above the right edge of the basket to be certain about the position of the ball. If in doubt, it is whatever the calling official decided. Can't really fault him either way.
Also, as Jeff said, it isn't necessarily about where the ball finally reached but when the player actually touched the ball.
