Once A1 has LGP, she's allowed to move as long as she doesn't initiate contact. If this is simply a case of B1 isn't quick enough to get around the screen, then too bad for B1 - I'm not calling a foul for lack of ability.

If, however, B1 is trying to get around, and A1 steps into B1's path and there is substantial contact - that's when I have a foul.
LGP only applies to defensive players. A1 can not, by definition, have LGP.

If B1 is attempting to get around A1 to contest A2 and A1 is serving as a screen and moving, I've got a block on A1. Screeners can not be moving to impede the defensive players progress...ever.
