Imaging A2 and B2 running directly at each other and colliding. Who is the foul on....both are moving??

If B2 is guarding A2, then B2 is guilty of a foul. If A2 is screening B2, A2 is guilty of a foul. It can't be both. It depends on what else is happening around them...the context.

Thanks. I understand everything.
