elbows
What if B1 controls a rebound with elbows out like some are taught to do and and pivots moving elbows side-to-side but not excessively and makes contact with the defender with his/her elbow???

Seems like a play that you would have to see to determine, but from what you've described, I would say "contact" does not make it a foul.
Assuming: * defender has legal guarding position (LGP) * no displacement has occurred Play on. Thoughts: * If by "pivots" you mean rotates torso without pivoting the lower body, you may have a violation, but you did say "not excessively". * If B1 correctly pivots with elbows extended, you cannot have a violation, but you may have a team control foul.

The official needs to ensure that no player infringes the requirements of 10-6-1 & 4. Those requirements are the same for players both with and without the ball.
ART. 1 . . . A player shall not hold, push, charge, trip or impede the progress of an opponent by extending arm(s), shoulder(s), hip(s) or knee(s), or by bending his/her body into other than a normal position; nor use any rough tactics. ART. 4 . . . A player shall not extend the arm(s) fully or partially other than vertically so that freedom of movement of an opponent is hindered when contact with the arms occurs. A player may hold his/her hand(s) and arm(s) in front of his/her own face or body for protection and to absorb force from an imminent charge by an opponent. |

Agree with Snaq...more info is needed before simply saying "PC foul."
