it doesn't have to have a bearing on the "play on the ball," IMO. What if B is the point guard and his teammate is looking to pass to him now? Displacement does not really require an obvious advantage in this situation. Normal pushing and shoving? Okay, I'm with you. Knocking an opponent down during a live ball needs to be called, though.
