The only reason I could think of to try and tell the coach about the mistake would be the following. Imagine, that you had this team in another game, and the SAME play happened, only you counted the basket... for the other team. Now you are going to have a serious problem. If you tell the coach beforehand, at least everything is above-board in appearance AND reality.

Odds are slim, but I personally think it's not a bad idea to bring this up before the game for other reasons; mainly personal integrity.

Only, however, if you have the chance for a casual conversation before the game. If you don't get that, and your situation comes up; simply tell the coach he was right last year.
