Because at camp last year, I was involved in just such a game. Great game, one or two point game, with under 30 seconds to go. "Championship" game for the age group. To me, no big deal; but probably was important to the campers.
During the last time-out, a D1 assignor came onto the court to talk to the crew. Here is the one-sided conversation:
"This has been a great game and you guys have done a helluva job. Now, you see that tree over there? The one a quarter mile past the last cabin? If you call a foul now, it better be visible to the grandma who's sitting under that tree. Got it? Good."
Now, moving screens generally do not fall under that description, unless the kid gets down into a 3-point stance and flattens the defender. And that's not going to happen.

And if you officiated such a great game why did he feel it necessary to come out on the court and tell you no to make that call. If it was such a great called game i see no reason for him to come out.
I think you will get more respect by making that call. Because at least people can say he/she was man enough to make it. If not you will be driving home with a look of guilt on your face.
