NBA Roundtable: Comparing NBA Players To Star Wars Characters
3. Darth Vader
Jason Coldiron – Steven Adams. While not as powerful as Darth Vader, he is still strong and potent in his own ways. He is detested by every opponent who guards him. His array of elbows, hard fouls, brutal screens and physical play gets under the skin and causes fear in everyone who dares take him on. Much like Darth Vader believes he is on the side of good, Adams is not an intentionally dirty player, he’s just a monster that does his thing and some people hate him for it… he will also choke you out in a second if the situation calls for it.
Jay Rosales – If Luke (Walton) is Luke (Skywalker), then Darth Vader has to be Bill Walton, no? What makes him so evil then? Oh right….all of the ridiculous things he says! Thank you Awful Announcing!
Evan Caulfield – LeBron James is Darth Vader and undeservedly so. He’s by far one of the most disliked players in the league and continues to receive hate from fans even though he’s the best player in basketball. Believe it or not, there’s even a site titled ihatelebronjames.com dedicated solely to hating on LeBron.
