4th Pass Options -
=============
2 should look first inside at 5 after receiving the 4th pass from 1.
2 should be aware that 5 might be able to trap his man on the baseline side... in which case the pass down the middle to 5 is on.
2 can shoot if his man sags off to help inside.
The next best option is to pass to 3 at the Point Spot in order to swing the ball from one side of the floor to the other.
The least desirable option is to return the pass back to 1.
