Well not everyone can be rocket scientists...we need people to flip burgers too....
No seriously, focus on the last columns (Norm 2, Norm 3, and Norm Adj). Norm = normalized, which means adjusted so that they are comparable; in this case points per shot attempt for 2s, 3s, and 2s including free throws. The higher, the more points per shot attempted.
The columns for the first set is team, wins, losses, field goal made, field goal attempted, 2s made, 2s attempted, 2s made percentage, 3s made, 3s attempted, 3s made percentage, normalized 2 pts (2 times 2s made percentage), normalized 3 pts (3 times 3s made percentage).
The columns for the second set is team, free throws made, free throws attempted, adjusted 2s made (free throws made divided by 2 plus 2s made), adjusted percentage (adjusted 2s divided by 2s attempted), and normalized 2s after adjustment.
Hope that either clears everything up for you, or caused a mental collapse, in which case I can recommend a good psychiatrist....
