    nah..here's what it means:

    http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/ssistory.mpl/sports/3155694

    "It's actually a Jon Barry thing from way back," Wesley said. "It wasn't even a basketball thing. It was actually a part of a dance, not to go into major details, of Jon Barry's. Actually, Vin Baker told a story and Sura was like, 'We could actually use that.' "

    The players started making the motion while playing cards the past few months, and then Sura and Barry decided they should start using it when they hit 3s in games.

    "They looked at me and said, 'Well, no, David's too serious to do it,' " Wesley said. "And probably on my 3, I probably wouldn't be thinking about it, which Coach would like. But when I'm on the bench, it's a lot of fun to do. It took off from there. Now we have fans in the stands doing it."

    When the players brought the gesture out in the playoffs, it definitely seemed to spark the entire team.

    The bench was on its feet screaming — and so was Van Gundy, who didn't let the hand sign distract him from Game 2 but made sure to revisit it at practice on Tuesday.

    "Jeff's not a big fan," Barry said. "We'll see who tries it on Thursday. It ain't going to be me."

    Sura made the assurance he will bring it back in Game 3 if he hits a 3. Earlier this season, Van Gundy told Mutombo he would be benched if he wagged his finger after blocks. But Mutombo's still wagging.

    There were some Chinese jokes about the Rockets posted about a month ago, and 'Sura Faints' were a big part of one of them. The humor was a little lost in the translation, but the 'Sura Faints' part was classic.
