Thomas has felt slighted since the airing of "The Last Dance" and feels MJ owes him an apology. On Wednesday, Jordan's former teammate Charles Oakley commented on the issue between the two. Additionally, leading Thomas to send a scorching tweet in the direction of Oakley. Despite the hate between the two, Thomas can understand Jordan's current situation.
