In playoff games, especially in late rounds, there is an alternate official at the table. This alternate official should definitely be able to assist the crew. Even if there is no alternate official, you could ask the timer. If he has definite knowledge that the ball was thrown from behind the 3-point line, the officials can use that and have him add an extra point to the score (if he added 2 points).
