This is going to shock you, but people on Twitter aren't always concerned about the facts.
Such was the case Sunday night during the latest airing of ESPN's Michael Jordan documentary "The Last Dance." As Jordan's duels with the "Bad Boy" Detroit Pistons were being chronicled, the MJ stans got extremely mad online about how Isiah Thomas, Bill Laimbeer, Dennis Rodman and Co. beat up His Airness.
So, as Twitter mobs do, they went after the wrong person and former Kings guard Isaiah Thomas was caught in the crosshairs.

A quick look at Thomas' mentions shows a lot of the heat was extinguished via the delete button once Thomas brought the error to light.
Thomas then posted photos of him and Pistons legend Isaiah Thomas to show the difference.
Of course, the highlights of episodes three and four of "The Last Dance" -- the non-Rodman ones -- centered around Jordan's rivalry with the Pistons and the obvious distaste he still has for them today after they walked off the court without shaking the Bulls hands after getting swept out of the 1991 Eastern Conference finals.

Episodes three and four were full of great moments. From Ron Harper's reaction to not getting to guard Jordan when the Bulls legend hit his famed game-winner over Craig Ehlo, to Dennis Rodman's mid-season Las Vegas vacation and Horace Grant giving his unfiltered thoughts on the Pistons, it once again was must-see TV.
