OK. I asked for feedback and that's what I got, so I thank you for that. I will consider your responses as seriously as I have considered others' as I continue to study this issue. It's a "work in progress" study.

Added thing I might not have mentioned: this idea I'm testing is based on studying plays that were obvious charges that were called blocks instead, which prompt me to ask, "Why?" And one commonality with many of them is that starting with two fists at the hips going upward. I'm not conclusively set yet to claim cause-and-effect, but I'm still led to wonder...

Thanx again for your input.

It's one thing I've been focusing on myself this season, on plays like that, when I can tell where the screen is coming from....to get ball side.

In this play, he had a solid look because the defender tried to take a charge...but if there is a contested shot, I imagine the ideal look would be on the other side of the lane.

Absolutely not. The play started in the middle of the court. He probably should have closed down, but you do not rotate on immediate drives.
