I think Avery is realizing that Dirk is not a post up player and that he will be more productive and efficient if allowed to face the basket. When it comes down to it, it's just about being comfortable, and if facing the basket makes Dirk more comfortable and thus allows him to play better, then so be it.
I am very impressed with how Avery is using Dirk this season.
