Chicken.
LGP (or lack thereof) has never been the sole requirement for being able to draw a player-control foul. It is only applicable in certain situations, mainly when the offensive and defensive players are moving. So a defender could certainly not have LGP, and still draw a player-control foul.
So, in your play immediately above, some of us (myself included), say A1 should be called for the player-control foul. Others have said there is no way A1 could be called for a player-control, because they did not have legal position (on the court). However, that is
not the reason the case play states as why B1 is charged with a blocking foul - the reason stated is lack of LGP.
So, change the conditions of the case play slightly, and B1 could certainly draw the charge.
