And as Cousins is rising, he realizes it almost instantly and tries to grab Carter and keep him up. But by then the damage is done. There is that possibility that if Cousins didn't have his rep that this might have a different result. IMHO.

It is indeed three or four notches down the scale if you compare it with Metta World Peace elbow on Harden. But it was definitely a flagrant 2 with one or two games suspension.
