When I watch this play as a basketball official I see G2 setting a legal screen against B1. Once again, this is a casebook play for a legal screen. Yes, B1 went down hard, but that is the result of an inelastic collision (see the above paragraph). Normally, I will not question a fellow official's judgement, but I will make exceptions for guarding/screening (block/charge) situations. I am sorry but this is a legal screen and there is not any defense to call it anything but a legal screen.

In regards to the rules, it doesn't matter how bad the impact was.
I have demonstrated, based on the video and the screen shot and the rules, how it was illegal.
Can you demonstrate how it was legal?
