I'd say that's true in general. But as he was taking a shot near the end of the game in OKC, Dirk yelled "Thank you!" BEFORE the ball splashed through the net for the 107-93 lead. He was standing right in front of the Thunder bench at the time.
He showed them up pretty bad, and not only with his game.
