To me, it is simply the action in front of me that determines the call. If that guard has made 5 previous attempts to steal the ball (some maybe sucessful, some maybe fouls), I'm calling the same basic action with 30 seconds left the same as I did in Q1,Q1 and Q3. It doesn't matter if the coach happened to yell foul. Do we really think the kids always hear and listen to the coach?
It's based only on what the player does, not what he's told to do.
It may be, however, that the coach yelling "foul" causes us to look closely at the contact to see if it was a play for the ball or just to stop the clock.
