Thomas is saying he’s feeling disrespected because people point out that he’s had injury issues (something Jordan never did). Nobody threw shade on his in field performance while he was at his peak. He is feeling disrespected for a different reason than Jordan was. And he is taking it to the press more than Jordan did.

Just my opinion of course.
Yes. Just your opinion. Players have been using the chip on their shoulder angle as a motivation tool since there was such a thing as sports. Before that they undoubtedly used it in battle. Whether it's real or perceived makes no difference in the mind of the individual using it as an additional driving force. There probably isn't a player in the NFL that hasn't used that chip at one time or another.
