1. Player A2 is screening and gives the little hip check to B1. Do you use the "Block" mechanic?
2. Player A2 raises his hands after contact and chucks player B1. Do you use the "Push" mechanic?
3. Player A2 has legs spread further then shoulder area. Player B1 trips over the foot. "Block" mechanic?
4. Player A2 slides along with B1, moving screen. Block Mechanic?
5. Player A2 hand checks B1 for his fifth foul and leaves the game. Applaud?
thanks

I agree with your mechanic for 1, 2 and 3. For 4, if no contact, no foul. If there's illegal contact, then it's probably a block.
I've gotta try the applaud mechanic someday
