PC-screen

How about the dribble-handoff a lot of teams run with their motion or flex offense? Many times that play looks a lot like a moving screen to me.

Assuming the "moving screen" to which you refer is illegal, you should call it until they stop.

It can be. One that you'll see occasionally is where a A2 curls around the A1 (who is holding the ball). As A2 passes A1, A1 pivots into the path of B2 who was guarding A2 and while passing the ball to A2 who is now heading down the lane for an undefended layup. It gets missed more than it is probably called, but that is an illegal screen.

Could be, assuming there is contact; but quite often A1 pivots and continues to move (roll) anticipating a possible return pass. In these cases I would think A1 is no longer screening and the contact most likely would be incidental, would you agree?
