is not going to the CBA, which is ranked second in the global market and revenue, but chooses a provincial league. Howard is really that stupid?
1. Let’s analyze why Howard did not join the CBA.
Although CBA League 's strength ranks around 30th in the global league, its salary level is second in the world.
Even well-known leagues such as Spain ACB, Australia NBL, Türkiye BSL, etc., it is difficult to accept salary of more than US$1.5 million.
Zhou Qi 's contract renewal contract at NBL Melbourne Phoenix is about US$500,000. According to the signing announcement of the NBL official website, this is one of the largest contract renewal contracts for the Phoenix team.
According to media reports, Howard's agent has also quoted some CBA managers, with the contract of $1.5 million after tax in one season.
Obviously, this has exceeded the RMB 6 million salary cap. Secondly, the new CBA season has not yet fully launched tournament system , the team's revenue is limited, and Howard also finds it difficult to accept this game mode.
2. Reality slaps in the face
It is worth mentioning that Taoyuan Yongfeng Cloud Leopards are a team that was just established in 2021. In May this year, it was not even qualified for playoffs in the T1 league. It can be seen that this is an emerging young team.
not only has a short team history, but the stadium has also been changing. At the beginning of its establishment, the Zhongyuan University Stadium was used as the team's main venue, but later it was changed to the Taoyuan Municipal Comprehensive Stadium.
After Dwight Howard announced his joining Taoyuan Yunbao, the province immediately sparked a "Warcraft Hot". In order to welcome the arrival of big names, Yunbao will move his home court to the provincial three-dimensional gymnasium with 15,000 seats this season.
10Taoyuan Yunbao's home tickets were sold on 10 minutes. "Warcraft" will make its debut on the 19th, which is enough to make people see the super mad popularity of Warcraft.
Ticket information officially released by Taoyuan team shows that stadium tickets are divided into three levels, namely 100 yuan, 350 yuan and 680 yuan.
fans' popular comments are very embarrassing. Home fans are worried that "you can't pay the World of Warcraft if you sit all over."
From the stadium configuration, this has a lot of gap with some university stadiums in other provinces, let alone Olympic-level stadiums.
Secondly, Howard's peripheral revenue is also difficult for the team to make a profit.
3. The popularity of the female
T1 League has also been increasing in recent years. It is worth mentioning that a large part of the league's operation will focus on the performance of the stadium.
, especially the promotion of cheerleading culture. Judging from the videos provided by the official event, the popularity of cheerleading far exceeds the competition itself.
is not only basketball, but also baseball league, but also relies on cheerleaders to attract popularity.
For example, Lin Xiang, a Lotte girl from Taoyuan cheerleading, is known as the number one goddess in middle school. She has also appeared in programs such as "Variety Shows Play Big", " Variety Show Popular ", and even selected as one of the top 100 beauties in the world.
Electric Leopard Girl is the exclusive cheerleader for the Yongfeng Cloud Leopard in the T1 League Taoyuan. The cheerleader name is taken from the homophonic "Electric Blast You". I hope that the energetic and full of electricity can support the team's electric opponents.
During the midfield performance, the cheerleaders' costumes and performance standards are very large. The new season is the new 2.0 Leopard Beauty upgraded electric Leopard Girl, bluntly speaking, bringing the audience a more fragrant, sweeter and spicy visual Leopard hit!
Since the founding of the club, the electric leopard girl has been the biggest selling point of the team. I believe this must be very popular with Master Huo...
In the short film that officially announced the joining Taoyuan, Howard mentioned, "I said I will do my best to come back, so that I can spread love through basketball and make people smile on their faces."
It can be seen that Master Huo has also planned an entertainment basketball journey.
