Beijing time on November 13th, according to domestic media reports, the Taiwan League of former NBA superstar Howard had just been finalized, and there is now another exciting news, that is, the Steel Falcons revealed that they are working hard to sign former NBA superstar Anthony. How much influence did
have on Howard's Airborne Taiwan League? According to Taiwanese media reports, Howard not only won a contract with a monthly salary of no less than 200,000 US dollars, but also caused a very large public opinion effect in the local area. The ticket sales of the Taoyuan Cloud Leopards are extremely hot. Their first four home games this season are close to 60,000 tickets were sold out within 5 minutes. Moreover, related peripheral activities continue to flow, and it has become a very influential team in the local area. Howard is undoubtedly an important part of the mix.
is related to the market capacity of the T1 league. Taiwan is far less potential than the domestic league. However, due to the home and away games, coupled with the vigorous marketing promotion, it was once a prosperous one. It is also one of the few with profitability under the current limited epidemic situation. one of the basketball leagues.
And after Howard parachuted into the Taoyuan Clouded Leopards, the Steel Falcons will obviously follow. If they can make an attractive enough offer to impress Anthony's team, according to the home and away games, as well as the extremely popular local market, Anthony As long as he wants to continue his player career, he can be parachuted into the Taiwan League like Howard.
The league in Taiwan is not like the CBA. There are various strict rules and restrictions on the intensity of competition and foreign aid. It can even be said that most of the T1 league teams are not as good as some top NBL teams. On the other hand, the management of the T1 league is ahead, and NBA stars such as Howard and Anthony at the end of their careers, although they are not capable enough to continue to find a satisfactory job in the NBA, they will not have great difficulties in playing the T1 league. , especially Howard, who was still able to play in the NBA last season, if his physical condition maintains a high level, he is not an empty slogan to publicize and lead the team to win the championship.
Compared with the CBA league, the biggest problem at present is that the long-term competition system has led to a continuous decline in market capacity, and big names like Anthony and Howard are reluctant to defect to the domestic league, resulting in the result that they cannot play a leading role. If the home and away games are resumed, according to Jeremy Lin's cards, it will be enough to support Guangzhou's market capacity, but due to the influence of the tournament system, the value of this part is very low.
