PROBLEM with SCORING.

Our league is reporting different FT numbers than official scoring. See below examples from our game 6 of the finals.

http://hoops.sports.ws/game/100007/81/2/10

Andre Blatche listed at 7-15 FT when official score says 8-16
Kevin Durrant listed at 4-12FT when official score says 8-20
Louis Williams listed at 6-9 FT when official score says 8-13

Tyreke Evans listed at 8-22 FT when official score says 8-23
Abdrea Bargnani listed at 8-16 FT when official score says 13-22
Danilo Gallinari listed at 5-12 FT when official score says 9-18

Can this be fixed before end of season?

Hi -

Most NBA official boxscores list 3-pointers as field goals. So, they're really displayed twice. To make scoring easier to tally, we display them separately.

What you're seeing are the correct numbers. If you add up the 3-point attempts and makes with the FG attempts and makes, they'll match official box score FG numbers.

Thanks
