If it had been a correctable error, you would have still been in the time frame (unless someone had scored during the period you summarize with the phrase, "play resumes.") It's not a correctable error, though, because it's not on the list (2.10). Let's all recite it from memory, 1) wrong shooter, 2) wrong basket, 3) giving an unmerited free throw, 4) not giving a merited free throw, 5) erroneously counting or cancelling a score. I really, truly did that by heart, I hope you're all impressed!
You tell the coach, "I'm sorry. But you'll get the next two out of three to make up for it." If he's still scratching his head about that at the end of the game, you know his I.Q. is... well, never mind.

rainmaker is correct that awarding the ball to the wrong team for a throw-in is NOT a correctable error under 2-10. This is simply a mistake in the administration of the game by the officials. If the official catches this before the completion of the throw-in, he can stop the game and fix it, but once the throw-in has ended (been touched in-bounds) no correction can be made. Casebook plays 6.3.1 Sit D and 7.5.2 Sit B are the references.
That said you should be aware that the rule, 5-8-4, which allows a coach to appeal a play like this is a little more inclusive. It also includes preventing or rectifying a timing, scoring, or alternating-possession mistake. Of course, as I said above, the AP mistake cannot be rectified after the throw-in has ended, it can only be prevented if caught before then.
rainmaker goofed though about the time frame. If this had been one of the five correctable errors (say you had a foul that should have merited shooting 1-and-1, but instead you gave a throw-in), you would still not be able to correct it because you missed the first dead ball after the clock properly started. That dead ball occurred when the foul was committed. You then administered one FT. This makes the ball live for the second time since the "error/mistake." So now it is too late even for a 2-10 error (which in your case this was not). You actually had this whole discussion during the SECOND dead ball following the mistake.
Lastly, are you aware that if a coach wishes to claim that a correctable error has occurred and make an appeal, he must request a time-out? (10-5-1b and 5-7-4) That's a 60-second TO if he has one, a 30 will do if he does not. (5-11-3)
You then determine whether or not a 2-10 error (or timing/scoring/AP mistake) has occurred and if so, whether it is still correctable. If the answer to either of these is no, then the team is charged with the TO and can use any time left over. If the coach was right, then his team is not charged the time-out. (Casebook plays 5.8.4 Situations A + B as well as 2.10.1 Situation F)
It seems that you failed to do this when the coach questioned the play.
