2023-24 Week 3 NBA Regular Season Predictions


(NBA Logo from Sportslogos.net)


By: Evan Troxel


My National Basketball Association predictions last week resulted in 30 wins and 27 losses.


The week before it was 18 wins and 16 losses.


So my predictions won-lost record for the entire NBA regular season is 48-43 right now as I am typing this on Monday morning, November 6th, 2023.


I also predicted all of the NBA preseason games between October 9th through October 20th and I won 40 games and lost 24 games.


But I did not predict NBA preseason games on October 5th, 7th and 8th.


So, in other words, I obviously did not predict all of the NBA preseason games this season.


My current won-lost total for every NBA game I have predicted so far this NBA season is 88 wins and 67 losses.


Before I reveal my predictions, which are subject to change before game time, I reserve the right to change any of my predictions before game time. If I don't have access to the Internet shortly before game time and I know I want to change my predictions before game time, I can change my predictions after game time only if I decide I want to change my predictions before game time.


Here are my National Basketball Association predictions to win for Week 3 of the 2023-24 NBA season from November 6th through November 12th, 2023:


Monday, November 6th, 2023 (Predicted on November 6th, 2023)


(Today, Monday, is the 14th day of the NBA regular season. Today is also the 33rd day of the entire NBA season, including the preseason. Today is the 310th day of the year and 55 full days will happen in the year 2023 after today. Today is the 56th to last full day of the year.)


Golden State Warriors at Detroit Pistons: Prediction to win: Golden State Warriors


The Detroit Pistons are 3-12 against the Golden State Warriors on Mondays all-time. Detroit last won on a Monday against Golden State (a home game) on December 30th, 1963, when the Warriors were named the San Francisco Warriors (almost 60 years ago). Detroit has lost the last eight games against Golden State on a Monday.


Detroit last won a home game on a Monday (before the previously mentioned game in 1963) against the Warriors on January 27th, 1958, when the Warriors were still in Philadelphia (more than 65 years ago now).


Detroit is 177-217 on Mondays all-time (40 games below .500). The Golden State Warriors are 234-217 on Mondays all-time.


The Warriors are 158-148 against the Pistons all-time.


The Pistons are 0-2 against the Warriors on Mondays in November all-time. Both of those games were at the Warriors (Golden State in 2010 and San Francisco in 1966). This is the first game at Detroit in November on a Monday ever.


Golden State last won exactly five straight games, then lost a game on the road, and then played another game on the road on Tuesday, March 7th, 2023. Golden State lost at Oklahoma City.


Detroit last lost 4 straight games and hosted the next game on Friday, October 28th, 2022. Detroit lost that game to the Atlanta Hawks. Detroit lost 4 straight games (or more) six times in the 2022-23 NBA regular season. They only hosted the first game after a four-game losing streak once last season. Detroit only won once in six tries to end a four-game losing streak during the 2022-23 regular season and it happened on their fourth try on Thursday, January 26th, 2023, at the Brooklyn Nets.


Golden State also had a five-game winning streak in the 2022-23 NBA regular season and they won five straight, then lost the very next game versus Detroit and then lost the next game after that versus Orlando. Those seven games were all at home for Golden State. They lost versus Detroit on January 4th and versus Orlando on January 7th. So, the opposite result has a good chance of happening and Golden State will probably win tonight.


The Golden State Warriors have a won-lost record of 2,928 wins and 3,100 losses all-time. The Warriors are 212-172 in the postseason all-time.


The Detroit Pistons have a won-lost record of 2,815 wins and 3,108 losses all-time. The Pistons are 189-183 in the postseason all-time.


The city of San Francisco’s birthday is April 15th, 1850 (disputed birthdate): SF is 173 years old on/after April 15th in 2023.


The Golden State Warriors head coach is Steve Kerr (Stephen Douglas Kerr). His birthdate is September 27th, 1965 (he is 58 years old on/after his birthday in 2023).


A Golden State Warriors basketball player:

Stephen Curry’s (Wardell Stephen Curry II) birthday is March 14, 1988 (35 years old on/after his birthday in 2023).


The city of Detroit’s birthday is July 24th, 1701: Detroit is 322 years old on/after July 24th in 2023.


The Detroit Pistons head coach is Monty Williams (Tavares Montgomery Williams). His birthday is October 8th, 1971 (he is 52 years old on/after his birthday in 2023).


A Detroit Pistons basketball player:

A Detroit Pistons basketball player: Cade Cunningham’s (Cade Parker Cunningham) birthday is September 25th, 2001 (22 years old on/after his birthday in 2023).
