I just want to be clear. Rut is acknowledging that there are moving screens, and that they are legal! This is a momentous occasion!!
This kind of post is the reason that I choose to mostly ignore what you write. I have always said that screens can move and be legal. The problem is people say "moving screen" and they think there is something illegal about it. I have never heard a coach say “that’s a moving screen” and claim the action was legal. A screen is either legal or it illegal. Moving or not is has nothing to do with legality the issue. If I get in the way of a defender and I do not give the proper time and distance, I have committed a foul if the contact is not ruled incidental. How is any of this new?

Peace
