Dirk has some funny habits...the shirt tugging at his shoulder just before a free throw, the massive shirt tug after a three pointer, the occasional tongue wag, and the famous Kevin Garnet ball goal tend swat as the oposing team member makes a shot after a referee blows the whistle....
I think he just likes putting his finger up in the air in a "we're number 1" deal.
A few more dirkisms..

- When he hits a big shot and does the tongue wag I sometimes seem him do a walk that appears he's showing us how big his brass ones are.
- He also has to touch the ball whenever we win the tip.
- During an opponents free throw he always tries to touch the ball after the opponent has shot. Maybe to put negative mojo on it.
- He takes a whizz right before he's announced in the pre-game.
- He does some sort of weird walk down the intro-line, jump and spin..then come back to the beginning before he's called. Never figured that one out at all.
