I was in attendance as well. Very close to the action, here is my take on both the Case and Francis events.

Case did do a handstand-ish thing. It was a rock-back jump up thing, I'm sure if you've seen it done you understand how hard it is to describe. I see this as inappropriate on the court, however not worth a T. I've watched this kid play for years and he does it quite often and hasn't been called for it before. So I'm sure he didn't mean anything by it and wasn't expecting a T or it.

With the Francis issue, I'm not sure if it was on purpose or not. Yes, BL's big guy did simply fall, their feet were tangled up. However from where I was sitting the forearm to the back of the head did look intentional. SO, I guess it can be taken either way. But I can say something should have been called, it was violent. I applaud Francis for keeping his cool and playing smart when he came back into the game. Not sure if I could have done the same.
