Racela had also questioned the timing of the correction, citing a rule that states that determining whether a shot is a two or three will be allowed by reviewing tapes "at the first dead ball opportunity, time out, and before the end of the period concerned, as the case may be."
In his reply, Jao said: "This rule shows that any correctible error can be corrected at these three periods of time where the opportunity may arise. It includes 'before the end of the period,' which is what happened in the game."
Jao disagreed with Racela's premise that the error should have been corrected in the first dead ball opportunity.
"By the rules, the other two instances are during a timeout and before the end of the game. That is what happened in the game," said the commissioner.

DLSU has used this rule to question Ravena's three 3pt. shots two years ago. there is precedence also. I don't know what the FEU team management have been smoking.
Also, as stated in the reply by the technical committee, it was the error of the scorer's table and not a "change" in call from 2 points to 3pts. it was clear that it was a 3pt. shot and two ref's called it a three. only the scorers table made the mistake.
