Two entirely different penalties. There is no technical for a flagrant foul. There is just a flagrant foul. Two flagrant points (two Flagrant 1's or one flagrant 2) and you're gone; two technicals and you're gone.
He got a Flagrant #1 on the AK47 foul and now just got a technical for complaining to the refs.
Doesn't a F1 result in being assessed 1 technical foul?
If so, this T just now was his 2nd.

_irk should be Auffed....
Damn just saw the replay...Dirk is a ing pussy.
Come on Dirk, 1945 was a long time ago. Dude, you gotta let that German/Russian thing go.
Ok...thanks. For some reason, I thought a F1 counted as 1 technical.
It was unintenional. Kirilenko was holding on to Dirk to Dirk's surprise. Dirk swung his arm around and bang.
Are you kidding! What the were you watching?......a different game perhaps?
I know he wasn't wanting to hurt him, but that had to be painful.....and definitely had to be called a flagrant foul.
Yeah I dont think it was intentional
Ende the same way too.
It was unintentional... Dirk really isn't an angry player on the court, I don't see why Spurs fans hate him, he's probably the most likable of all the Mavs that is for sure.
I'm inclined to agree, but I still don't like him!![]()
As a Spurs fan, I always love it when Dirk goes up and goal tends a (dead-ball shot) that is taken after the play has been blown dead. It's in the spirit of good sportsmanship and makes me want to just hug the guy.
Dirk is pretty likable when he's not flailing. When he's flailing, I can't stand him.
Stop watching games in Cubanvision.
stern could mess with cuban and suspen him for him sending all those tapes in
No, I think Dirk is to be respected. He certainly respects each and every one of the Spurs and the spurs organization. This is high praise, coming from one of the hardest working players in the league (his physical and practice regimes are legendary). Be as it may, Nowitzki is probably the last person in the NBA who would deliberately try to hurt another player out of frustration or anger. Like Timmy, by nature he has as much self control as anyone has ever had.

(He had ahold of the ball with both hands almost all the way to the floor.)
Oh please, like every NBA player doesn't do that.![]()
Player mentality, it's not done for anything really. That isn't what I look for in good sportsmanship. You've got to look for people who accept personal fouls against them, respect of opponents, don't start fights and not gloat when it comes to good sportsmanship.
Speaking of flailing, I was talking to a friend in Houston who was telling me how much he hates Manu. Im like,,,how come? he would say, " man that idiot just flops and gets calls all the time, even 3 feet front from him." No matter my arguement, he would just repeat this same thing. I was amazed how much hate he had for Manu. I guess thats what Mav fans get from Dirk.
No NBA bigman has gone down quicker after being touched by another man. And that probably includes John Amaechi.
Kirilenko doesn't exactly have much padding on his body, anyways. Dirk may as well have been slinging Lara Flynn Boyle down onto the hardwood.
Anyone have a vid of the foul?
