Continued
Let's suppose player 3 inbounds to 1.
Player 5 quickly runs down deep sideline.
Player 4 stays in the middle of the court.
Player 2 fills the lane.
Player 3 stays behind the ball as a safety option.
Remember: on the catch by player 1, he immediately looks up to see the whole floor and passes ahead to the open man or drives to the middle of the floor looking for a easy fast break opportunity.
If player 1 gets trapped he then looks to pass to either 4, 5 or reverse to 3.
If player 5 gets the ball he will drive all the way to the hoop attacking the basket.
If player 4 gets the ball in the middle of the court he then looks for 2 or 5 for a quick break.

Big Man Hand-Off
If the ball is denied to both players 1 and 2 then player 5 breaks to the ball to get the inbound pass from 3.
Player 3 steps in toward 5 to get hand-off then dribbles down the court for an easy fast-break opportunity.

Staggered Screen
Here is another option by using the staggered screen to free up player 1.
Remember: every time player 1 gets the ball his mission is to push the ball quickly down the court looking to penetrate for lay-up or kick out for a shot.
Spread your offense as much as possible to make defense cover great deal of the court.
