Also, Rule 4-27-3: "Similarly, contact which does not hinder the opponent from participating in normal defensive or offensive movements should be considered incidental."
Compare that with: "If the defender is crowding the player with the ball, making it hard to move, that's what I call good defense."
Pivoting is a normal offensive movement, and "crowding the player with the ball" hinders that movement.
