preventing the opponent from saving the ball?

So the mere fact that B1 moves with A1 while keeps body contact and blocks A1's path does not make the block illegal.

I think I am stuck because I'd like B1 to play the ball instead of the player's body for the loose ball in this case.

Thanks to all who responded. I am all set with this one. Have a good weekend!

But isn't A1 also moving with B1 after making contact?

I'd like both teams to keep shooting 3 point shots and make them so I don't have to call any fouls. Ref what they do, not what you would prefer they do.
