ESPN has adopted their own version of adjusted +/- aaaand Dirk comes in 5th this season.

On a related note:
Somebody has to explain to me some time why a guy like Shawn Marion gets little love from +/-. He seems to be a perfect "do all the little things" guy that should profit from this kind of stat, but does not and has never ranked anywhere near the top. He's 188th and a net minus according to their metric.

More Marion (http://stats-for-the-nba.appspot.com/):
10/11: -1.8
11/12: -1.9
12/13: -0.7
The new +- basically tells us how well someone does what the coach asks them to do. Carlisle asks Marion to do too much and thus that stat makes him look bad.
