STEP 1
STEP 2
This example of the Chin series begins with 1 executing a dribble handoff with 3 while players 2 and 4 interchange spots on the court. Also, as that happens, 5 lifts up from the low post to the high post area.
STEP 3
STEP 4
Next, 4 cuts to the basket via the flare screen set by 5 and could receive the ball from 2 if open near the basket.
STEP 5
If 4 did not receive the ball from 2, then the chin series flows into the continuity pattern which would be executed on the opposite side of the floor.
To start the continuity, 4 cuts out to the right side corner and then towards the right side wing. At the same time, 1 cuts up to the right side slot while 2 dribbles to the left side slot.
Also, 5 cuts across to the left side high post area while 3 lifts up from the left side corner to the left side wing.
STEP 6
Next, 1 receives the ball from 2 and then 4 receives the ball from 1. Afterwards, 2 cuts to the basket via the back screen set by 5 and could receive the ball from 4. If 2 does not receive the ball, then 2 cuts out to the right side corner.
STEP 7
Next, 1 cuts to the basket via the flare screen set by 5 and could receive the ball from 4 if open.
STEP 8
If 1 is not open, then the continuity gets initiated once again. 4 begins to dribble to the right slot while 2 fills the right side wing and 5 cuts to the right side high post.
At the same time, 3 fills the left side slot while 1 cuts out to the left side corner and then to the left side wing.
