Five spots, fifteen to eighteen feet apart, nobody inside: 1 passes to 2 on the left wing, because the offense starts with a pass and every pass starts a cut.
1 face cuts hard to the rim in front of X1, hand up, looking for the return pass; the read is X1's head, because a defender who turns to watch the ball has lost the cutter.
X1 stays with the cut, so 1 finishes to the rim and fills the far corner, 3 fills the top, and 5 fills the right wing, because an empty spot is a dead possession; everyone fills toward the ball.
2 reverses it to 3 at the top, because the ball never stops in 5-out: two seconds without a catch and the next player moves.
2 basket cuts off his pass and the scouted adjustment appears: X4 denies 4's fill from the corner to the wing so the ball can't keep moving, because the defense has decided the reversal is what beats it.
Counter: 4 plants and back cuts down the lane the moment X4 steps up to deny the fill, because a denied fill is a back cut by rule, and 2 clears to the left corner so the lane is his alone.
Counter finished: 3 throws the bounce pass to 4 at the rim, because the denial put X4 above the ball with no way back.
4 finishes the layup; two passes, two cuts, and three fills beat a denial without a single screen, which is why the rule comes before every action.
