I agree with this. I still think it was marginal though. I would not call this at that point in the game if it was going to be the first illegal screen call made during the game. At that point I would prefer to get something more obvious. Especially since they did not even inbound the ball to the player that was being guarded by the person who got screened. If it was called that close throughout, then I have no problem with the call.
