I'd like to think we'd have caught this regardless, but their yelling, "bump the cutters" definitely helped us focus on correctly officiating this illegal off ball contact.

You're taking it too literally. "Bump the cutter" means to anticipate where the cutter is trying to go and legally beating her to that spot. We specifically teach to not foul in that situation.
