If one of our video gurus could copy this and post it again such that it can be viewed in slow motion that would be helpful.
For now, my opinion is that the action constitutes either a player control foul or an intentional personal foul. I do not believe that it warranted a flagrant personal foul. The act was not savage or violent, just reckless.

Press play. Hit YouTube link. YouTube lets you slow it down to .25 speed.
I doubt this is ever happening right in front of me. Probably could've called two jumps balls or a violation for excessive swinging of elbows. I'm pretty quick on jumps balls at this level when stupid stuff is liable to happen if you let it go. Again, could've called a violation also. Waiting was probably a mistake.
If it gets to an elbow in the face. Someone is probably sitting for the night.
