Yes, you have stated your position. And that's fine if you're making the call based ONLY on whether the screen was illegal or not. I really don't have that much of a problem if your opinion was that the screen was legal either. That's just a difference of opinion.

What I completely disagree with is that the severity of contact or whether the coaches/fans agree or disagree should have any bearing at all on the final call being made. I know that I'm simply repeating the same thing over and over...but game management does not enter into calls of this nature in any way imo. You're getting into over-thinking and over-analyzing things if you try to enter that into the equation.

JMO.
