Is he guarding him or trying to screen him? You need to made that decision, and then apply the appropriate rules.

The only practical difference, as I see it, is that the visual field element only applies to screening. A player who is guarding has no such restrictions....only time/distance as determined by whether the player has the ball or is moving. A defender can take a guarding position outside of the visual field a stationary opponent with no requirement that they allow room for a step.

"Guarding is the act of legally placing the body in the path of an offensive opponent...."The defnintion of screen has no distiction between offense/defense (although you rarely see a defender set a screen). Being in LGP has certain requirements. If those are not met (e.g., never facing the opponent), it is certainly possible that a legal screen could still be set but the screening principles with regards to subsequent movement are more restrictive than the guarding principles....no lateral movement, for example. Also, a screen requires time/distance even if the opponent has the ball. So, a player could, short of having LGP, set a screen on the offensive player (with or without the ball) without ever facing the offensive player if they give time/distance for the offensive player to stop or change directions. This is how you have a foul on A1 when A1 runs up the back of stationary B4 who is guarding A4. B4, even unknowingly, set a screen on A1.

So the consensus is :
B established LGP at some point in time . 1) with no player possessing the ball - it's still in flight Team Control foul on A . Ball given to B on sideline. 2) with A just catching the pass and turning his head to face forward Player Control foul on A. Ball given to B sideline (regardless if B in Bonus) 3) with Player B just catching the pass - while holding his position on the floor - just before A arrives Common foul on A. Ball given to B on sideline (assuming no bonus otherwise free throws) Is above correct? |
