Here's the problem with your scenario.

Why do you say that the guard has not established a legal guarding position?

Remember that time or distance is not required to gain a LGP. The defender is not moving toward the dribbler. If A1 drops his shoulder and hits B1 in the chest, and B1 has not moved toward him, B1 has LGP. There's no other way for him to be in that position. B1 is entitled to his space on the floor, if he obtained it legally and got there first. All B1 has to do is get to the spot first and it's a PC foul when A1 makes contact. Time and distance not required.

PC.
