Modify scraper to get boxscore json files too #4

We should have scraped boxscore json files too. So let's do that. Eventually, write the SQL insert statements to insert info from boxscore json into the SQLite3 database.

Schema-wise, we'll need a new table called playergames that's keyed on game_id and player_id, in which each record is a player-game instance with data on every player's game stats. There might be other useful meta data from these files, but a playergames table is absolutely essential.
