We are a small, quick team that has to come with Full court Run/Jump pressure
Have reviewed NFHS 03-04 rules R4-S39 on Screens ....
The teams we play tend to put their B-52(big guys) in slow motion down the middle of the court, taking little "detours" to help out their ball handlers as needed
Can some one put into "laymans" terms rule R4-S39 as it pertains to this situation:
From the NFHS 2003-04 Rules R4-S39:
A1: A screen is legal action by a player who, without causing contact, delays or prevents an opponent from reaching a desired position.
A2: To establish a legal screening position:
a. The screener may face any direction.
b. Time and distance are relevant.
c. The screener must be stationary, except when both are moving in the same path and same direction.
A3: When screening a stationary opponent from the front or side, the screener may be anywhere short of contact.
A4: When screening a stationary opponent from behind, the screener must allow the opponent one normal step backward without contact.
A5: When screening moving opponent, the screener must allow the opponent time and distance to avoid contact. The distance not need to be more than two strides.
A6: When screening an opponent who is moving in the same path and direction as the screener is moving, the opponent is responsible for contact if the screener slows up or stops.
A player is entitled to any spot on the floor, provided he gets to that spot according to the rules.
Thanks for any input
