This is obviously a push, but hardly ever gets called unless it’s really harsh or there is some holding. What guidelines are used to determine when enough is enough with the pushing and jostling under the boards?

Just watch Horford in the post for Florida. He commits an offensive foul all the time on his post ups when he backs down his opponent. It's a good example.
