NBA Obsessed takes you into the hit and run game of NBA Basketball.
The National Basketball League took to the outdoors in Indian Wells, California and played a game of basketball. It was the Golden State Warriors playing against the Phoenix Suns under the sun. How cool is that?

It was discussed so what happened? Phoenix thought Amare Stoudemire would be sent packing to Golden State with other players and considerations and in return Golden State would ship back Stephen Curry with other players and considerations. You know how that stuff works.
