Yes, time and distance do apply. But when B1 is attempting to get around, A1 better stop moving or they haven't allowed any time or distance. If B1 is trying to slide by A1, then the only way A1 can stop them is to move sideways with contact.
1. You're talking about after initial contact?

2. What if A1 stepped slightly backward and sideways, such that contact was broken, or only maintained by B1's forward motion?
1. No. It could be the initial contact. If B2 is attempting to get to A1 when there is contact, A2 better be stationary or moving directly away from B2 (and the point of contact). Any other movement by A2 is a block (illegal screen).

2. Still A2's foul, they were not moving in the same path/direction but obliquely away (a movement only allow by guards, not screeners)
