I'm going to be a little bit of a devil's advocate here (with great consideration that this is a HTBT-type play). If the elbow lands a direct blow to the face and knocks the opposing player to the ground, I'm going with a flagrant in this case. Obviously there was excessive force (so we at least have an intentional personal foul) but a blow to the face is violent by nature, isn't it? I guess the play I'm envisioning in my mind would be a flagrant personal foul as you originally called it. On the other hand if the elbow lands a similar blow to the chest, I might be more partial to call this an intentional personal foul. Just my two cents, right or wrong
