3 clears weakside (see Spanish Women's team, 76ers), 5 picks and rolls when 1 passes to 2.

NBA Coaches Playbook - 3 can run the baseline, or stay in the corner (see Bill Self dribble over). 4 replaces 5 if X4 helps on 5.

Bill Self - 5 ballscreens while the pass is in the air to force a bad hedge.
 
Emir Mutapcic - 5 sets up the ballscreen by first going and making a cut into the lane, occupying his defender and making the screen defence tougher. Run zipper fist ("thumbs up") if the ball goes to the left side. On a sideline out of bounds, have the weakside wing downscreen for 5 who immediately ballscreens.

San Antonio Spurs (coachbob.free.fr) - ballscreen option if 2 reverses to 4.

NBA Coaches Playbook - if 2 zipper cuts and is denied at the top, 5 screens for him then rolls or ballscreens.

Note that the flarescreen is more effective if 3 has cleared to the other corner.
