X2 pressures the pass to the left wing, so 1 speed dribbles at 2; 2 takes one step to the ball and back cuts to the rim, because anyone dribbled at must go backdoor. The read is X2 following the first step.
The scouted adjustment: X2 drops under and waits in the lane for the back cut, so 2 finishes his cut and fills the far corner while 5 lifts to the right wing and 3 fills the top, because a cut that isn't fed still has to end at the rim and then refill.
Counter: 1 turns his back to X1 and power dribbles toward the corner as 4 lifts to meet him, because a defender who sits in the lane for the back cut has given up the handoff at the arc.
Counter continued: 1 hands the ball to 4 and his body becomes the screen on X4, because the handoff is a pass and a screen at once and 4 catches it already running.
4 turns the corner into the middle and 1 pops back to the wing to space; X5 sinks from the right wing to stop the ball, because help in 5-out always comes off a shooter.
4 kicks to 5 at the right wing, the shooter whose defender helped, because the drive is finished the moment two defenders commit to it.
X5 recovers with a long closeout, so 5 makes one more pass to 3 at the top and 4 relocates to the left corner, because the extra pass keeps the defense rotating and finds the open shooter.
3 shoots the open three; the dribble-at, the handoff, the kick, and one more pass each moved one defender too far, which is why the ball never stops.
