I think the hang up with Rut's post was on the word "displacement." I agree with his premise, but think we should change "displacement" to "impediment" as a prerequisite for an illegal screen. No, contact itself doesn't warrant a foul, but if that contact impeded the defender's progress (to include but not require "displacement"), I've got a foul.
