Can you dig it, sucka?

During Thursday's 10-point victory over the Magic (nba.com), I noticed that Orlando big man Dwight Howard kept looking at his right hand after scoring a basket ... At first, I thought Dwight might've jammed a finger or otherwise injured the hand, but apparently that's just part of his normal routine (orlandosentinel.com):
It still has some comedic value, but Howard probably needs a new celebration after making baskets. After tossing in a running hook over an outstretched Kendrick Perkins and Garnett in the first quarter, Howard performed his usual celebration of running down the court and staring confusedly at his hands. For those who don't know what we're talking about, think "Is it the shoes?" with a visual aid. But for a guy promising wonderment while defending his all-star dunk contest title in February, Howard probably is due for a change for his in-game celebration as well.
In other words, Dwight wasn't checking on a potential injury, he was ripping off Booker T (tnawrestling.com) ...

Hey, don't stop there, Dwight; how 'bout breaking out the Spinaroonie (youtube.com) during the Dunk Contest?
