Dribble Drive: Skip to the Weak-Side Window

1 dribbles into the breakdown zone; 3 is one big step above 2 in the far corner, because the weak-side shooter needs a head start to the window.
1 attacks the lane line and breaks the drop zone into the drag zone; 3 lifts to the open window on the diagonal, 4 trails, 2 holds the corner, and X5 steps across to help, because the drive got past the first defender.
The read: X3 covers down from the window to take away the dump to 5, so the skip is open, because the help behind the help always leaves the weak-side shooter.
1 throws the overhead skip to 3 at the window off a one-dribble jump pass, the most essential pass in the offense, and clears to the right wing, because the passer never stays in the lane.
The scouted adjustment: X3 sprints back and runs 3 off the line, so 3 takes one dribble middle for the angle instead of forcing the three; counter: 5 seals inside and headhunts X5, because any skip is an automatic duck-in.
Counter: 3 enters the ball to 5 on the seal and cuts to the dead corner, because the entry pass follows the skip while X5 is still on the high side.
5 drop steps to the baseline with one dribble, because X5 was sealed high and the trailer 4 is already sliding to the back-side block in case of a front.
5 finishes with the outside hand; the drive, the skip, and the duck-in made three defenders rotate and the last one was a step late, which is why the skip is thrown early.
