So if you are reffing and coach asked you "justacoach, wasn't that a moving screen there?" you're gonna respond "No such thing Coach" like an ashole? Got it.

I'll say "A moving screen is only illegal if the screener creates contact."

If the coach is someone who has been chirping all night or has been an a-hole themself, I may say "No such thing Coach."

Like I said before, most of the time I hear it is when an offensive player is simply moving in the same direction as a defender.

If you are going to split hairs I said it was proper terminology, not proper rule book terminology.

Based on the amount of clinicians and board members I have listened to use that "terminology" I deem it in the very least acceptable if not proper.

"common" < > "proper"

I also sometimes say "S/he tried to set an illegal screen, but missed." Mostly, imo, the coach wants to know that you were watching (and saw it) and will continue to watch for it.
