Yep, and I already wrote that in post #8.

The ball bounces straight up from the rim, twice, and then goes through. Lead is unaware that it went through. The scorer adds 2 points to A's score.
C informs the Lead that the ball went through. Lead asks if it matters whether the push was before the tap or after.
Comments . . .

Since we now know you had a double whistle so you knew what the Lead's call was I would have told the Lead that the table erroneously awarded 2 points on the play. I would save the training moment for the post-game chat.
