In #3, that defender was going to run into that screen no matter what. His teammates needed to alert him to that screen. What little shift the screener may have made didn't really change what was going to happen.
Clearly, neither was called in the videos. I just think that #1 is a must get and #3 is marginal.

A lot of people have said that time and distance are an issue in #1. Maybe I'm not interpreting time and distance right or maybe the fiba rules are written differently.
If you feel the guy defending is moving when the screen is set (and I'm not) then he needs room to step between 1 and two steps.
If you feel the defender is stationary when the screen is set then assuming he can see laterally he has no expectation of time and space.
