5-Out: Post-Up After the Cut

1 passes to 2 on the left wing, because the post-up in 5-out begins the way every possession begins, with a pass and a cut, and nobody knows yet that this cutter will stay.
1 basket cuts and seals on the ball-side block for a two count, because he has the mismatch and a post that arrives on a cut is a surprise the defense hasn't planned for.
The read: the scouted defense has X1 front the post, so the entry from the wing is gone; 3 fills the top and 5 fills the right wing, because the spots refill while the post holds his seal.
Counter: 2 reverses the ball to 3 at the top rather than forcing it over the front, because the lob over a fronting defender is thrown from the top where the angle is, not from the wing.
Counter continued: 2 basket cuts through to the left corner and 4 lifts to the left wing, while 1 re-seals on the high side of the front as the ball moves, because the front has to change sides and the seal beats it in the turn.
5 flashes from the right wing to the elbow to pull X5 up with him, because the help behind the front has to come from somewhere, and now it is gone.
3 lobs over the front to 1 sealing under the rim, because a fronted post with no help behind him is a lob by rule.
1 finishes at the rim; the post-up lasted two counts and one reversal, which is why a cutter who posts never kills the spacing.
