In my defense B1 never obtain LGP, so how could if be a PC foul. I see maybe nothing here but since B1 didnt establish LGP then a block could be called but not a pc foul

LGP does not apply here.

Example

A4 gets an inbound pass fron the backcourt end line and proceeds to weave and out manuver four of the defensive players on the floor as s/he drives to the basket.
player B5 who has been in the lane standing just at the edge of the rim since the ball was inbounded and has not moved a muscle - having their arms straight up in the air is still standing there when A4 makes sufficient contact on B5 to displace Him/Her during a try.
B5 never moves a muscle and the contact is
A: A1 Knee in B5 chest
B: Chest to chest
C: A1 chest to B5 side in the torso.

If B1 is not moving, LGP is not relevant. Picture B1 standing still at the division line with her back to the dribbler. The dribbler comes up and accidentally runs into her hard enough to knock her down. B1 never had LGP because she never faced her opponent, yet you cannot call her for a block because the rule is clear that she is entitled to her spot on the floor.

In high school rules, a prone player is also entitled to that spot.
