A screen is an attempt by an offensive player to stop a defender from guarding the ball-carrier.
Each personal foul committed by a player is also counted against his team; when a team goes over the limit, its opponent is awarded a free-throw.
Covers such things as an illegal dribble or spending more than three seconds in the restricted area. Possession is handed to the opposition, usually via a throw-in.
