1 dribbles into the breakdown zone on the right; 5 is below the left block, opposite the ball, because the post's first rule is to be out of the driver's way and out of touching distance of his man.
1 attacks the lane line and gets his shoulders past X1 at the drop line, so he keeps going; 3 lifts to the open window, 4 trails in line with the rim, and 2 stays in the corner, because the ball is below the free throw line.
The read in the drag zone is who helped: X5 steps across to stop the ball, so 5 relocates under him and seals with a forward pivot on the inside foot, because the help defender must now give up a layup to the driver or to the post.
1 drops the ball to 5 with a wrap pass kept high, then clears to the wing to refill the arc, because a driver who stands in the lane after his pass is the next help defender's best friend.
The scouted adjustment: X3 covers down from the window to double 5 before he can go up, so 5 pivots and finds the man X3 left, because a post who forces a shot over two defenders has thrown away a wide-open three.
5 kicks it out to 3 at the open window; the pass is there because the defense chose the post over the shooter, and the skip to the weak side is the most essential pass in the offense.
Counter: 3 attacks the middle gap immediately, attack-attack-skip-attack, because the defense is still rotating; 5 relocates to the right block to stay opposite the ball, 4 slides to the left slot, and X5 is scouted to stay home hugging 5 this time.
Counter finished: X5 stays glued to 5, so the lane to the rack is wide open and 3 drives into the rack zone; 5 stays wide out of touching distance, because all he has to do is get around X5 for the rebound.
3 finishes the layup; the post never touched the ball on the counter and still decided the possession, which is why he stays opposite and seals.
