NBA Jam India- 5 reasons basketball in shopping malls is a hit

Playing surface

The surfaces used are also very important

When the NBA conducted basketball events at malls in India, they use interlocking tiles of high grade playing surfaces – the kind of surface a kid playing basketball on concrete courts in India can only dream of. Indoor courts have better surfaces than outdoor ones, but these interlocking tiles are something else to play on. The bounce of the basketball and your own feet are amplified on these surfaces which are a given when the NBA does an event at a mall.

You can almost feel your feet bouncing off that surface.
