Please clarify

MTD- disagree, maybe?

Why would player B set a screen against a shooter? This does not make sense to me. Defend a ball handler, not set a screen against?

Second, time and distance don't matter for a player with the ball. The dribbler should be watching where he is going. Time and distance do matter for a player without the ball because they are gaurding someone and deserve the time and space to prepare for and avoid a legal screen. If the screen is set behind them then the distance must be greater because more space is needed to avoid that screen.

In the starting post for this thread B1 has no obligation of time and distance if he has legal guarding position. Are you saying that if he chooses not to have legal guarding position (by not facing his torso to player A) then he must allow time and distance to earn his spot on the floor?
