A better term than "displacement" is "SBQ". It stands for "speed, balance, quickness". Affecting any of things gives a great advantage to the defender, regardless of court position.

If a player's speed, balance, or quickness is affected, it's a foul; whether or not the player has been displaced.

It's an NBA-ism, but it's one that has been a HUGE help to me.
