I was using NF terminology: the OP said he was "trail, opposite table, with A's basket at his right" and that he called a traveling to team A.

That's only a problem of understanding what "having A's basket at the right" means. I assumed it was at the right when facing the baseline, i.e., the OP was on the left side of the court. Now I see that he meant to have A's basket at his right when facing the table side. I'm sorry for the misunderstanding, but I always think to "left" and "right" referring to "facing the baseline in the direction of the play". Shouldn't the trail be always facing the basket?
