From there, offensive players should be watching the positioning of their offensive teammates in order to help with the timing of the “cycle” or set-play, being mindful of proper spacing. They should also be watching the positioning/personnel of the defensive players, exploiting weaknesses and watching for opportunities to get open for a high percentage shot on goal (i.e. following slides, back-cutting defenders, etc.).

All players on the floor need to be involved/engaged in order for there to be continuity and "flow" within this team offense; if you are not moving your feet you are not involved. Furthermore, if the offense doesn't get open in the middle, they will not be successful in the long run.

Players need to know their offensive role ahead of time; there are only so many shots to go around.  Generally, on any given shift a player might be regarded as a 1, 2 or 3 on their side of the floor.  1's are ball carriers and shooters, who should be carrying the ball the majority of the time and taking 10+ shots per game; 2's are crashers and bangers, setting picks/seals, catching roll passes in tight and attacking rebounds in front of the net; 3's are "waterbugs" who should be keeping their feet moving at all times, keeping the ball moving whenever they get it (unless they are wide open), getting offensive loose balls and having more responsibility defending against reverse-transition.
