Count the bucket? Dead Ball? Act like you didn't see it?

The three officials huddled. Prior to this the T signaled for a good basket, and that is what the crowd,teams and coaches thought.
After discussing the situation the officials decided NOT to allow the basket, as the reasoned the arrival of the ball and the foul occured simultaneously. Therefore, once blow, ball became dead. HOWEVER, the thought was that if the ball arrived and was deflected PRIOR to the foul occuring, the basket should be counted.
I am not still not sure on this. I would lean to counting the basket unless it was 100% clear (which in this case it wasn't) that the foul occured prior to the ball being deflected.
