Two-guard front, 5 high at the left elbow. 1 passes to 3 on his own side, because any same-side pass from the two-guard front puts the offense in Strong-side Chin and the passer's cut comes next.
1 UCLA cuts off 5's hip toward the left block, and 5 steps out to the arc after the rub. The read is X1: behind the cutter means a layup, and here X1 jumps over the top, because the scouting report says this team sends the defender over every high-post rub.
3 passes to 5 stepping out, and 1 spaces to the left corner, because a cut that is not fed empties the lane for the handoff that is coming.
3 circles under where 1 cut and comes back up for the dribble handoff as 5 dribbles toward him, because the second option in Strong-side Chin is the wing and the post playing two on two with the lane empty.
5 hands the ball to 3 and his body screens X3, because the handoff is where the post's size does the work of a ball screen without the defense seeing one set.
2 sets the flare screen on X4 on the weak side as 3 turns into the middle, because the flare has to arrive the moment the help defender's eyes go to the ball.
3 drives middle off the handoff and 4 fades off the flare to the right wing. The scouted adjustment: X4 helps on the drive and leaves the flare shooter, so the counter is the pass he left behind.
Counter: 3 kicks to 4 behind the flare, because the help came from the one shooter the screen had already freed, and 2 slips to the rim behind X2 as the second look.
4 shoots the three off the flare; the rub, the step-out, the handoff, and the flare each asked a different defender for help, which is why Strong-side Chin is run with one pass instead of two.
