I think you are projecting.
Every person has a right to a jury by his or her own peers and not to have a jury prejudiced by issues totally unrelated to the case. Thats why when ABS lawyers tried to make race an issue again later in the trial the defense objected and the judge sustained that objection vigorously.
Either lawyer could've influenced things in such a way to have a diversified jury if they wanted one. Yet neither one did, as evidenced by the jury that was selected. If you have an issue with this, you are welcome to call up the lawyers and complain. Otherwise, stop. Your complaints have nada to do with this case.
Race had nothing to do with the case? What did ABS claiming Isiah doesnt care about WHITE season ticket holders have to do with it? What did Isiahs comments regarding Larry Bird 20 years ago have to do with the case? It was an obvious attempt to prejudice the all white jury againt Isiah.
I dont have any complaints. It wasnt my case. I could care less about Isiah. I dont like him or hate him. This whole thread is misleading because David Stern isnt going to do anything to Isiah nor Dolan.
Dear God, learn to read, *******. You're bitching about the jury selection process, which is just stupid and making ridiculous claims regarding it. As for race being brought up, Isiah brought it up too! As for the point of race being brought up, they were establishing a history of insensitivity towards protected characteristics (race, gender, religion, etc...). Guess what, all of that is in their right to do. Your excuses are comical, though, so I thank you for that.
