SAN FRANCISCO — Only two teams had beaten the Golden State Warriors inside the Chase Center before Wednesday, one of the most difficult arenas to leave with a victory.
The Indiana Pacers and Denver Nuggets accomplished that rare feat, and the Pistons became the third team to hand the Warriors a loss in their home arena with a 122-119 win on Wednesday.
Golden State was 17-2 at home entering the game, the best home record in the NBA, and had won six straight games inside the Chase Center. Detroit led for the majority of the contest, but the Warriors made several runs to keep the game close until the its waning moments.
