Field notes
The homepage lists five Thursday, Oct. 8 preseason matchups, each with a 0–10 rating and a label such as “Solid Watch” or “Only For Fans.” HoopRate says its neutral score weighs closeness, finish, comebacks, star nights, flow, stakes, and defense; users can adjust those weights, with each game re-rated against their preferences. Results, winners, box scores, and rating explanations are covered until a reader chooses to reveal them. The page says the app works without an account, while saved teams, watchlists, and seen-status require a free one.
