感谢邀请，很高兴回答你的问题！
要说最近的NBA复赛计划确实闹得沸沸扬扬，因为正值全美种族歧视抗议示威活动如火如荼的时候。难免NBA复赛引发了多方不同的意见，很多NBA球员也纷纷站出来表达自己的意见，有的支持，有的反对，有的中立，众说纷纭。
极力反对NBA的代表例如欧文。而支持NBA复赛的代表有小里弗斯等等。其中霍华德是明确表示支持欧文的看法。至于原因，肯定不只是对新冠肺炎的担忧那么简单。大家不妨看看霍华德自己怎么说的。
他的原话是：
“I agree with Kyrie (Irving). Basketball, or entertainment period, isn’t needed at this moment, and will only be a distraction. Sure it might not distract us the players, but we have resources at hand majority of our community don’t have. And the smallest distraction for them, can start a trickle down effect that may never stop. Especially with the way the climate is now. I would love nothing more than to win my very first NBA Championship. But the unity of My People would be an even bigger Championship, that’s just to (sic) beautiful to pass up. What better time than now for us to be focusing on our families. This is a rare opportunity that, I believe, we as a community should be taking full advantage of. When have we ever had this amount of time to sit and be with our families. This is where our Unity starts. At home! With Family!! European Colonization stripped us of our rich history, and we have yet to sit down and figure us out. The less distractions, the more we can put into action into rediscovering ourselves. Nations come out of families. Black/African American is not a Nation or Nationality. It’s time Our Families became their own Nations. No Basketball till we get things resolved.”
大概意思偶翻译下：
偶同意欧文的看法。此时此刻大家不需要篮球和娱乐，因为这只会分散注意。可能不会分散球员的注意力，但是会分散很多社区人们的注意力。即便小小的分心，可能也会产生深远的影响。尤其考虑到现在的氛围。偶非常渴望夺取自己的第一个NBA总冠军，但是团结人们比总冠军更重要。现在大家最好专注在大家的家庭上面。现在是一个宝贵的机会，即所有社区可以利用的机会。大家从未有过这样的时间跟家人坐在一起。这就是联合的意义所在，在家，陪着家人。欧洲殖民主义剥夺了大家丰富的历史，所以大家需要坐下来探讨出路。越少的分散注意力，大家越能够才探索自偶方面采取更多行动。国家就是有无数个家庭组成的。黑人或非裔美国人不是一个国家或者国籍。现在是时候大家的大家庭组成自己的国家了。在事情解决之前都不需要篮球。
所以，从霍华德的讲话中可以看出，他的主要担心还是在抗议示威和改变上，因为他认为目前这件事情比打篮球更加重要。
