How is the use of a commonly understood term like "moving screen" different than one like "over the back?" While I understand that "moving screen" appears in the books in places and "over the back" does not, why is it bad to use these common terms? People understand what they are and what we are talking about.
stripes,
It has been my observation that people understand the following:
  • Over the back: a non-contact foul when a player reaches into an opponents vertical space.
  • Moving screen: a non-contact foul when a screener shifts his weight or moves.
