    You should use Google and search for this instead. It's not just a thing that's in the game, it's a real stat used in the NBA. Plenty of info on it out there.

      It has to do with how many points scored and how many given up while a certain player was in the game. I think dont quote me on that.

        +/- is simply the difference between how much your team scored vs how much your opponent scored while your player was in the game. For example, if the opposing team scored 20 and your team scored 10 while your player was in the game, your +/- would be -10.

          The short answer is: the higher the positive number, the better.

          The long answer is...

          If it's negative, either your opponents got a mean hot streak, or you stink at defense.

          In hockey, the plus-minus stat is used to measure how good a player is defensively. A goal scored by your team is +1, and allowing a goal from the other team is -1.

          Keep in mind this is when you're on the ice. When you're on the bench, your plus-minus level goes nowhere.

          It's the same thing in basketball. Each point scored by your team (including free throws) when you're one of the five players on the court is +1, and each point you allow the other team to score (again, including free throws) is -1 for you. When you're on the bench, plus-minus stays put, no matter what.

          A high positive number means you're not allowing the opponents to score a lot of points, and your team is also scoring. A negative number is the opposite, and is a bad thing, as it means your opponent is scoring a lot when you're out there.

          Manu Ginobili usually has a terrible plus-minus rating, zero or lower, because he generally stinks at defense.
