Calipari - if 2 backcuts and clears, 5 ducks in, look for a give and go with 1. Kentucky - if 2 backcuts (a drop) he keeps going, 5 ducks in, look for a give and go with 1. They don't dive anybody on a post entry, they want 5 to play. Petitgoue - 5 moves up to the weakside elbow if he sees a backdoor cut by 2. Matt Bollant - black action - 2 backcuts, 5 comes high (weakside elbow), 4 comes right off 1's butt for a hand-off. Olesen - 1's first look is a backdoor for 2. 5 takes one step up the lane getting ready to clear out if 2 back cuts (if X5 sinks in to take away the back cut, 5 can duck in hard). If 2 does not get a pass, he goes out to the 3-corner, 5 now steps hard high, 1 hits 5, does a give and go cut, if that is not open, you have a clear out for 5. Walberg - if 1 can't get to the rack zone, stop in the drop zone, looking for 2 to go backdoor. 1 jump stops, ball fakes, 2 takes one step up, yells "ball", shows both hands, and cuts through hard. 5 tees up to the opposite elbow when 1 stops in the drop zone, 2 stays in the corner until he sees that 1 has picked up his dribble. If 2 isn't open he goes out the other side, 1 looks to pass to 5 for a give and go, then clear out (follow 2) if there is no return pass.

Rotation - 2 rebounds, 1 stays in the corner. Calipari - throwing the ball back to the guy who started it is an automatic post-up.
