should take each team's shots, impute a league average shooting % on that many shots, then net how many points each team is above or below, and then the delta between the numbers measures "who shot better from 3"
so like 19/40 would be 13.08 points better and 1/2 is 0.8 points better, so team A outshot team B by 12.3 points from three
0/8 is 8.8 points worse than expectation, and 1/20 is 19 points worse than expectation, so team A outshot team B by 10 points from three
