OAKLAND, Calif. -- Two teams that will have a hard time recognizing one another renew acquaintances Tuesday night when the Indiana Pacers take on the Golden State Warriors.
The Pacers and Warriors are the only NBA teams that haven't met this season. It has been 477 days since Golden State thumped visiting Indiana 142-106 on Dec. 5, 2016, completing a two-game sweep early last season.
Since then, the Warriors have won a second NBA championship and the Pacers have parted with longtime standout Paul George in a deal that has helped them move up the Eastern Conference standings this season.
