IMO
It is easy to tell when a player is swinging his elbows with intent: foul if contact is made. I have never called a violation on this because if he/she is really swinging the elbows, a defender playing tight enough to get hit WILL get hit, or, backs off and the play continues with no contact. I suppose if a player REGULARLY swung elbows with no contact, I would warn or call a violation to send the message. If a player pivots, ball above his head or chinned, and his elbows clip another player, I do not call a foul or violation.
