C.No signal given (assume a two point basket)

In this case I would've seen the point to the ground mechanic from the trail and once the ball goes through the net said "2,2" so that the clock operator,visiting scorekeeper,and myself are on the same page.This one is tough because it is correctable but there was no dead ball prior to the go ahead basket.If I had a dead ball between shots then I would ask "Hey ____________, just to clarify was the last shot for _______ a 2 or 3? Answer in this case would be a two, we'd make the adjustment on the board and finish the game out.

Another good table mechanic would be for the timer/scoreboard & scorer to watch the floor officials, instead of ball/player watching, for the field goal signal if the shot is questionable.

Was the scorer's table court level or a couple of rows up in the stands?
