If he hasnt made it under i will watch the roll and see if A1 went looking for A2's defender and if he doesnt go looking for him then i will see what kind of contact there is...it is a "have to see it" play for me.

I actually view the screener who rolls before the dribbler goes past him with a closer eye. That's not what a screen/pick and roll is...If he rolls early and takes out the dribbler's man im more apt to call the illegal screen. In my experience, if the screener holds the pick, there wont be significant contact when he rolls. you still have to watch it obviously.
