You can say that things were not fair but saing that kasparov played against 3
people and two computers is a misleading title.

I  understood that Junior chose all the moves or from book or based on
calculations.

The only choice of humans was in decisions if to accept or offer a draw and
maybe in decision if to stop to use the book(it is not clear and I guess that it
was not the case).

Humans were not used to change computer move if they thought the computer move
was wrong.

Draw offer or accepting draw was not considered as computer move before the
match so using computer analysis and GM's to decide about it was allowed.

I also do not think that the decision that was made for a draw was good for
Junior.
