Some of you have suggested that I put together a mix of KG's pregame ritual. So here it is.
I tried to get it as seamless as possible, and it has pretty much everything that KG does between arriving at the arena and tipoff. The man is a creature of habit, and he's got one heck of an elaborate and focused ritual.
ARRIVAL:
-Arrives at arena
-Greets arena workers & security personnel
-Goes to locker room
-Changes into uniform
-Puts on a couple of layers of warm-ups
-Stretches a bit
-Stretches and waits in the hallway
-Team gets amped by jumping around
-Team trots to court, KG always the last to go
WARM-UP:
-Runs around the court, gets loose and warms up
-Participates in the lay-up line
-Greet officials, captains meet
-Warms up some more
-National Anthems: stands with head bowed, eyes closed, and sways side to side
-More warm-up; takes jumpers from various spots
PLAYER INTRO:
-Sits alone toward the end of the bench with head down
-Waits for his name to be called
-[MIN] Last to be introduced; leaves two open seats in remembrance of two teammates who died in car accidents, Eldrick Leamon (1994 Mauldin teammate) and Malik Sealy
-[BOS] Second to last to be introduced, before Paul Pierce; still leaves two seats empty in honor of his friends [someone in Boston please confirm this for me]
-Team huddles (with variations), gets amped
TIP-OFF:
-Removes warm-ups and chucks practice sweats
-Goes to the basket stanchion to tie shorts and tuck jersey
-Sometimes peeks out before bumping his head a couple of times on the stanchion padding
-Walks to scorer's table
-Pours talcum powder (chalk) into his hands and -- as a tribute to Michael Jordan -- slaps them into a cloud of smoke in front of the announcers. Poof.
-Rips a layer off the sticky mat and steps onto it to wipe his shoes [2:57 -- thanks to "erangaa21" for clearing this up for me]
-Walks to center court to greet and fist-bump opposing players; sometimes hugs those who are his close friends
-Walks away from everybody while swinging his arms, pounding his chest, talking and cursing to hype himself up
-With everyone waiting, makes his way back to center court for the opening tip
-[MIN] Enters jump-ball circle for the jump
-[BOS] Gets into ready stance while Perkins does the opening tip

Harrison was considered one of the top safeties in the league during his playing career, he played best in the post-season which is big, in 7 post-season games Harrison recorded 7 INT's, 2 sacks, was responsible for a FF and scored a TD.
He won 2 Superbowls, and appeared in 4 [one with San-Diego as a rookie],
In Superbowl 39, he had 7 solo-tackles, 2 INT's, was responsible for a forced fumble and recorded a sack despite missing a part of the game.
Known as a hard-hitting, tone-setting player who is the voice of the defense and has shown play-making ability in both the regular and post-season, in 15 seasons Harrison picked off 34 balls and recorded 30.5 sacks, making him the first and only player ever in NFL history to have at least 30 INT's and at least 30 Sacks. [He is also one of only 9 players in NFL history to be in the 20/20 club]
Harrison was selected to only 2 Pro-Bowls in his career, mostly because of his reputation as a "dirty" player, not many people liked the fact he played down to the whistle [and sometimes a little after], but he was a hard working player and a great locker room guy who mentored younger players.
Harrison was also the first player in NFL history to score touchdowns on an interception return, fumble return and kickoff return in same season.
