According to the T1 League Taoyuan Yunbao Basketball Club in Taiwan, China, officially announced that they will hire Howard to join in Taiwan, and the latter will officially arrive in Taiwan. It is reported that they will hold a press conference on November 12 to announce Howard's related franchise.
OK, Taoyuan Cloud Leopard released this news on November 8, and there are still four days left before November 12. It is unknown whether Howard will go or not. How many games can play for Taoyuan Cloud Leopard, there are too many variables.
Some netizens certainly don’t understand. CBA’s money-making ability and popularity are many times better than this Taiwan Taoyuan Cloud Leopard. Why did Howard join them?
What is the level of Taoyuan Yunbao Club in Taiwan T1 League?
Let’s put it this way, Taiwan’s basketball now has three leagues, and the SBL league that everyone knows is still a bit famous. On this basis, Taiwan has two basketball leagues, P+ league and T1 league. Let’s understand it this way. It’s like the football league, there are the highest first league, and the lower second league and C league below.
T1 League is equivalent to the League C. There are only 6 teams in this league. It was established in 2021. Last season, Taoyuan Cloud Leopard Club ranked second from the bottom in the T1 League.
Howard had an affair with the Shanghai team in CBA League , but as the dust settled between the two foreign players in Shanghai, Howard was disappointed for a long time.
But let's think Howard is a big star at all, and his fuel tank still has a lot of oil. Although no team in NBA is willing to sign him, it wouldn't be so humble that he went to such a low-level league. What's more, this Taoyuan Cloud Leopard is not a rich club.
Whether from the perspective of "money" or reputation, Howard has no reason to join such a team.
Perhaps, Taoyuan Cloud Leopard provided Howard with a super gift package that he could not refuse, such as howard could return to the NBA to play at any time.
Howard wants to play in the NBA and fans all over the world know that he has been showing goodwill recently, hoping that he can join the Lakers again, hoping that he can join the Lakers again. He doesn’t want to retire yet, but it’s not okay to be unemployed at home like this. Go to a team that you can have the right to speak to train your muscles and bones, and make some money by the way. When a team in the NBA signs him, you can return to the NBA as soon as possible. No CBA can do such terms as
, and only a more niche league team will agree to the requirements of big-name stars like him.
In addition, Taiwan's P+ and T1 leagues also have outdated NBA players playing there, and pigeons have also happened. Lawson taught the Taichung Suns a lesson.
What do you think of Howard joining the T1 league?
