I've heard this statement a lot form coaches: " S/He put the elbows out on the screen and almost hit my kid!! That's a foul!"
An illegal motion isn't always a foul. In cases like this, I have stated to the coach that since no contact was made, there is no foul to call. I also make a point to warn the offending playr to keep arms/elbows down. If it happens again, make sure there is contact first, then get the illegal screen. I always report it as a block to the table, and I guess that's right because no evaluator has ever told me to change.
