I don't have a perfect picture of what you are describing, so I see two different scenarios. If B1 is right on A1 and A1 is contesting the situation with B1 (i.e., B1 is really guarding A1 but has poor positioning), yeah sure, I would expect a 5 second count. If B1 is fairly passively 5.5 feet away and not really "guarding" A1, I would expect a no call. Somthing in between, have to see it to know what I would think of the sitch.
Also, I know this is sometimes more controversial, but if A1 is driving with clear line to basket and B1 is on them but to the side, I would expect no 5 second count (even if drive started 4 seconds into a 5 count on a dribbling A1). Not all agree I know, just my perspective on the intent of the rule.
