What you posted pretty much tells it all. The following is just a general idea; when a player sets a screen and the opponent has no time to stop or go around without displacement by either player, then its probably illegal.
That concept probably only applies to a screen from behind. From the side or front,the screener does not have to give "time" or "distance" to have a legal screen.They just have to legally be there before the contact.
If the opponent is moving, the screener must give time and distance.
