I don't think that's a very good example, but I see where you're going. Here's a better example.
A1 has the ball OOB for the throw-in. A2, guarded by B2, moves to receive the throw-in pass. In trying to set a screen, A3 does not give B2 sufficient time and distance and contact results between A3 and B2.
If we use JR's interpretation, this is an intentional foul on A3. B2 did not have the ball and was not about to receive it. This cannot
possibly be the intent of the POE. The only reasonable reading of the POE is that the players mentioned in the parenthetical examples
are involved in the play.
