At one of the pre-season scrimmages I attended, we were told that if we say something to the players during the game, we need to phrase it in a way that doesn't sound like we're coaching them to do or not do something.
Avoid: "No hands!", "Don't push!", etc.
Better: "Hands!", "Easy!" etc.
As always, though, when in Rome YMMV and all that good stuff.
