So i thought this group can help me figure something out. Recently got a sheet of stats from our son's bball team and i don't understand all the stats.
I looked over the #'s and it looked like there was some calculation errors, I thought "total points" meant all points the kid earned - so 2 points per regular shot, 3 for three ptrs and 1 for FT's...add it up and there you go.
Well, apparently that is not the case? can some of you sports folks explain?
here is an example:
Player A 7/17 2 pointers, 3/9 3 pointers, and 11/16 FT's
His total for "Total points" was 27, my way 34
Player B 2/2, 0/0, 2/2
His total 4, my total 4
Player C 7/23, 3/10, 4/6
his total 21 mine 27
Is there some other way or are the calc's off?
