a) the ball rebounds towards b1/a3
b) the ball rebounds towards a2 and away from b1/a3
c) the basket is good.
what would you guys call on this play?
a) Foul if the movement prevents b1 from getting the rebound (if s/he gets it anyway, no call)

b and c) No call.

10-27-3 -- I don't view the "push" as preventing B1 from "participating in normal defensive movements" if the ball isn't there to be rebounded. Now, I won't give any benefit of the doubt to A3 -- that is, if the rebound was farther out than B1 was initially, or anyway close to him / her, I probably have a foul. And, your description of moving B1 3-4 feet is pretty severe.
