If 5 is open, 2 hits 5 with pass.  
5 looks to shoot, or pass down to 4 on the opposite block.  
If 5 is not open, 2 passes the ball to 3 in the corner.
 
If 3 is open, he shoots.
If 3 cannot shoot, he looks for the double team.
 
If 3 is double teamed, he looks to hit 2 cutting to basket.
 
If he cannot hit 2 cutting, he looks for 5 rolling to the basket, or posting up on the block.

2 continues through key, and sets up on opposite wing.

1 replaces 2 on ball-side wing.
 
If 5 is open, 3 hits 5 with pass, and 5 makes the basket.
