Mark, you called a foul on the baseline defensive screen, correct? Was she in legal guarding position but not legal screening position? Why did you call a foul?

I think that what MTD is saying is that an action which would be a legal screen for offensive player, can also be legally committed by the defense. Basically, that's true, isn't it? Whether you call that action a screen or a guard, it's still legal for defense if it's legal for offense, right?
And by the way, if defense are the only people who can guard, why is the person who usually brings the ball up the floor called the Point Guard?
