Not really. The guard could be moving his shoulders forward when the contact occurred.

Yep, based on the statement he was "turning his shoulders" at contact, one shoulder was likely moving towards the dribbler. Still a PC foul.

If the guard is moving towards the dribbler when contact occurs then the guard is responsible for the contact and it would not be a PC foul.

Most of the time, it would be, but not necessarily.

I'm not calling a block on a guard who has LGP but twitches forward a small amount just before a major collision.
