I've seen this question hundreds of times. I am pretty sure NBA keeps stats in a slightly different format then internationally which is why the mistake tends to be made.

I don't think so. I believe the NBA scores it the same way that BB does. Here is a boxscore from last season:
STARTERS M FG 3FG FT OR TR A TO STL BLK PF PTS
K. Bryant, SG 43 7-22 3-9 5-5 1 3 1 4 1 0 1 22
L. Odom, PF 40 2-8 0-1 10-16 0 10 5 3 0 0 4 14
P. Gasol, C 32 4-7 0-0 3-4 0 8 2 5 0 0 3 11
D. Fisher, PG 28 2-4 0-2 3-3 0 0 4 1 0 0 5 7
V. Radmanovic, SF 22 2-6 2-6 0-0 0 3 0 0 0 0 5 6

Kobe had 7 fg, 3 3's, and 5 FT for a total of 22, which means he must have hit 4 2-pointers and 3 three-pointers.

Once I scored a basket that still makes me laugh.
