Transition
Disadvantage

1 and 2 are in the corners. When coach shoots, their teammates crash the offensive boards, 1 sprints to the centre circle as the defensive safety, and 2 sprints to the top of the key.

Defensive rebounders X1 and X2 should "rebound down" - go to the defensive glass - since their checks are not crashing the boards.
 
(Options)
 
- live if coach scores (it's a miss)
- if team O gets an offensive rebound, play to a stop or score, re-start
- to start, coach calls "shot", passes to a defensive rebounder and calls "rebound", calls "outlet" for an outlet pass, check team O at each step, then "live" or re-start.

On the outlet pass, 2 moves quickly to pressure the ball, forcing sideline and preventing a pass or dribble directly upcourt. 1 protects the basket until released by the first big to get back. Play up and back, re-start.

Variations

- the nearest attacker jams the defensive rebounder to prevent a quick outlet pass, then gets below ball level
- 1 and 2 sprint to each side of the centre circle, the ballside player takes the ball, the other protects the basket.up
