    NBa.com is featuring +/- data for all player combinations this season (they refer to it as the Lenovo Stat). It's not adjusted for strength of opponents, but still it is an interesting stat to look at. Particularly for comparing various combinations on a single team. Check it out here:

    Lenovo Stats

    Note that you can adjust number of players you're looking at, teams, etc. using the drop down menus at the top.

    Another site to keep an eye on for similar data (probably more detailed, though), is basketballvalue.com. They currently have all the +/- data for last season, and they're working to include the data for the current season shortly. It's unclear how frequently they'll be able to update, however.

    Durvasa, do you know of any sites, that have attempted to track the stats for players back in the 80's and 70's? I know SI did an article awhile back comparing former superstars to today's superstarts based on PER, but I have yet to find a comprehensive site with these type of statistical data.

    Thanks in advance.

    No, I wish I did. And the NBA only recently started publishing play by play data, I believe, so there's no way to determine it.
