    Your dream team is not JVG's team, it sounds like you want D’Antoni come to Houston.

    I'm sorry, but I'm ashamed to admit that I don't understand the inside joke. I've heard this Sura fainting business a lot, but I have no idea where it's from. Can someone please explain where this Sura faint joke came from? Thanks.

    It came from a joke thread, there was a joke translated from Chinese and the punchline was, "Sura falls in a faint."

    Was it like a mistranslated joke or something (like the Lakers-Rockets war feelings... ultra-Lucas thread)? Sounds kinda odd for that to be a punchline. Sounds pretty random... I guess that's why it's funny haha.

    Tmac - Be aggressive - drive every possession. create open shots for other teammates (w/ exception of rafer) if your jumper is not going in, DO NOT take 30 shots. Drive or pass.

    Yao - DUNK the ball hard, tear the rim off - don't layup
    Pull down the rebounds like you are fighting for your life. After you YANK them out of the air, wrap both arms around the ball as tightly as possible and swing your elbows wildly. If you get an offensive foul, at least you will have the satisfaction of taking someone's nose off their face. And they will be reluctant to get close next time.

    Rafer - bring it up court, pass the ball, and NEVER shoot the ball. and most of all, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER (think winston churchill) shoot the teardrop.

    I think it is just tough to have a joke that is translated directly. So much of humor is language, you can't write a joke in one language and expect it to work in another.
    Here is the original joke:
