Legal moving screen
Can someone explain or post a video of a legal moving screen mentioned in C below? Thanks.
ART. 2 To establish a legal screening position: a. The screener may face any direction. b. Time and distance are relevant. c. The screener must be stationary, except when both are moving in the same path and the same direction. d. The screener must stay within his/her vertical plane with a stance approximately shoulder width apart. |
Basically it's overstating the fact that if A1 is running down the court and B1 runs up his back, the foul can only be on B1.

Throw-in after a made basket...tight pressure on the ballhandler full court. You'll see the inbounder walk down the court with the dribbler using him as a screen. Since the screener and the defender will be moving the same direction, if there's contact, it's still a legal screen...even with the screener moving.

You're saying if the screener and the ballhandler are moving in the same direction. The rule is stating that the screener and the defender (player being screened) are moving in the same direction. |

I hate the term "Moving Screen". The defender can move all he wants to short of contact. How many times do we hear coaches (and fans) yelling for a "moving screen" when no contact occurs?
Let's stick to "Illegal Screen". :) |

A better example.... Fast break. A4 running/jogging/walking straight down the court in line with the right lane line. A1 slashing from the sideline to the right block. B1 is racing down the court, also in line with the right lane line, in an attempt to get to A1 but runs into a moving A4 and is prevented from reaching A1. Legal screen. |
