Joe Ingles – Jar Jar Binks (The Sith Conspiracy Version)

OK, hear me out on this one. I know that Jar Jar Binks is one of the most hated characters in all of the Star Wars universe. But then again, isn’t the ever trash-talking Joe Ingles technically one of the most hated opponents in all of the NBA universe?

So, maybe that’s a stretch, but the fact of the matter is that Ingles doesn’t exactly look like he’d be a pesky defender, a lights out scorer, or an NBA player at all, to be frank. Similarly, Jar Jar Binks appears as little more than a hapless weakling that’s no threat whatseoever. However, according to recent conspiracy theories, Jar Jar is far from that. Instead, he’s actually a Dark Lord of the Sith.

Seriously, if you haven’t heard the theories, you have to check out the video below. It makes Jar Jar’s character about 1 million times better:

And isn’t it a perfect fit for Ingles? On the surface he’s a hilarious, easy-going, laid back guy, but underneath, he’s secretly a Dark Lord who will destroy your dreams on the basketball court. Yes, Darth Joe Joe Binks of the Utah Jazz would sooner steal the ball, drain a three and talk trash in your face than go diving for goober fish or crash der boss’s heyblibbler like the simple and annoying Jar Jar that everyone might think he is.

As goofy and innocent as he may look, if he’s matched up against you on the court, he’s simply not one to be trifled with.
