“The Last Dance”<\/a> docuseries on ESPN, which not only features the story of the 1997-1998 Chicago Bulls but also looks back on the entire career of Michael Jordan<\/a>, has given new life to so many stories that people may not have thought about in years. One such story involves Jordan and the Bulls attempting to finally get past Isiah Thomas, Bill Laimbeer<\/a>, and the Detroit Pistons in the Eastern Conference in the late '80s and early '90s. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Isiah Thomas offered up an apology on the matter earlier this week and says that things would likely go down a little differently if he had to do it over again.
