Not knowing the rules that are being played under, I am sure the discussion is not about whether to give a T or not, but to discuss what exactly the T was for and who it was on. That is important so that it is administered correctly. It is possible the table side official might not know if a foul or violation was the result of the play before the T.
It is common in my pre-game conferences with my partners before the game that I discuss what we do when we have a T. And talking to each other is one of those things I think is required so that we can make sure we are shooting everything i the proper order with the right shooter and putting the ball in the proper place. I have nothing wrong with their conversation. Peace

It's generally a good idea to get together after a T to be sure all are on the same page.
Maybe C thought there was a foul called on black before the T. Maybe they use NCAA rules and he wanted to confirm the POI. ... |

Any game I work, if a T is called, the calling official gets with at least one partner to ensure everything will be administered correctly.

This play took place at the Oregon City "End of the Trail" tournament...a HS girls team tournament, but also a college officials camp. So it is HS ball played under NCAAW rules. I would bet several of my favorite beverages that the "discussion" was simply making sure that they administered the T correctly and went POI (throw-in on the endline) instead of at midcourt .

Probably just to confirm that the initial whistle was out of bounds and that it was not a shooting foul. Signal was pretty clear, but perhaps the other official missed it or was looking elsewhere.
May also be standard practice to make sure partners are aware before reporting to the table. Edit: given what rockyroad shared ... that makes the most sense. |

Which is funny cuz after the conference the partner went to the wrong basket to administer the FT's.
|

And they were discussing where to inbound the ball while the shots were being administered.

Glad when I work that tournament I get to wear shorts. Yes agreed with what others (and you) were saying as they were getting together and discussing the order to shoot in etc...as its different than probably what they were used to. |

Fun With Signals ...
I just love the "slamming the ball down" signal. Hopefully the NFHS will add this to their signal chart next year. That, and the "Frankenstein's monster over the back" signal.

I noticed the "slamming the ball down" signal, too. I think it's in the book next to the "rapid slapping of the wrists" motion used by coaches to illustrate illegal use of hands.
