Open-post motion
 | 1 Layups to drill 3-out and 5-out motion, then - add a guided defender - 1 on 1. 1) 3-out motion (3 on 3) 2) 5-out motion e) Elbow flash See Tactics - 3-spot pass-cut-fill, Teaching basic 4-out motion, Offence - 5-out youth motion, MacKay single-double gaps. 1) 3-out motion In 3-out motion the corners are empty, so players can go down to a corner and cut to get open, and space out on a basket cut then space up on ball reversal. |
 | a) Get open on a wing If overplayed for a pass, 2 can go down to the corner, blast cut to the ball (misdirect), read whether to backcut or pop out to the wing (shown), then attack. Use two balls with a passer and rebounder, 3 is the next shooter. Progressions - attack baseline (away from the pass) - attack middle - make a delayed middle drive (a draft drive behind a basket cut) - backcut - read a guided defender - 1 on 1 - start in the corner, blast cut (see below). See Layups - Blast cuts, Jr. NBA cutting. |
 | b) Basket cut from out top Give and go on a pass to a wing from out top. Pass to coach and basket cut, progressions: - the pass cen be early or late (at the rim) - add a guided defender, who jumps to the ball (cut behind) or not (face cut) - 1 on 1. Progression - 2 on 0, replace coach with players on the wing, who - make the scoring passes - attack middle behind a basket cut (draft drives) - pass or draft drive. See Layups - Give and go, Jr. NBA cutting, 1 on 1 - Ganon Baker give and go, 1 on 0 to 1 on 1. |
 | c) Fill out top from the wing 3 fill cuts to a read spot along the foul line then pops out top. Progressions - attack away from the pass - curl to attack - backcut - guided defender - 1 on 1 - players make the scoring pass. |
 | 5 Variation - more game-like, 1 passes and cuts from the top, 2 replaces or backcuts (shown). 3 is the next shooter, then 1. 2 delays the fill cut for a two-count, maintaining a double-gap in the middle. For 5-out motion, put 3 in the corner to start. See 1 on 1 - Fill cuts. |
 | d) Fill the wing from the corner 1 cuts to a read spot from the corner, pops out to the wing for a pass. Progressions - attack baseline, middle, either - backcut - guided defender - 1 on 1. See 1(a) above (Get open on a wing).  |
 | 2) 5-out motion The corners are filled, which adds more options for basket cuts, e.g. on a pass from a wing to a corner, but also affects how the wings can get open for an entry pass. |
 | a) Get open on a wing Backcut replace - the corner is filled, so 2 backcuts on a pass fake, 5 misdirects from the corner to get open on the wing, 2 exits to the corner, 5 attacks middle, 2 replaces to the corner. 2 is the next shooter. In a game, 5 fills late (after a two-count) to maintain a gap for a right-hand drive from the top. Progressions - 5 can drive baseline, 2 exits the paint weakside - guided defender - 1 on 1. See Offence - MacKay single-double gaps. |
 | b) Basket cut from a wing Give and go on a pass to the corner, progressions - from a wing to the top - from a corner to the wing. |
 | c) Fill the wing from out top 3 misdirects to the wing, or backcuts. Progression - fill the wing from the corner, see 1(d). See Shooting - Huggins cutting. |
 | d) Dribble-at backcut Use players. 1 dribbles at 3, who backcuts for a one-hand bounce pass off the dribble. Variation - for a righty going left, use a two-hand pickup, flick bounce pass with the right-hand hand, the left hand is a guide hand. Progressions - dribble hand-off - guided defender - 1 on 1 - 2 on 2. In a game, a dribble-at can be used to get the ball to a wing, 3 backcuts and clears if there is no pass (and the pass is not easy). See Layups - Jr. NBA cutting, Shooting - Dribble handoffs. |
 | 12 Progression - direct backcuts. 1 pass fakes, 3 backcuts for a (bounce) pass. Rotate lines. In 3-out motion, 3 would need to come back out to the same wing as there is no replacement from the corner. Progression - 3 backcuts, 1 drives for a layup behind the cutter. |
 | e) Elbow flash 3 is overplayed, 4 flashes to the elbow for a pass, 3 backcuts for a pass. Rotate lines. Progression - no pass to 3, 1 cuts for a handback from 4. See Offences - New South Wales open-post motion, Passing game. |
