We always want to the catch the ball on the move to make the defense work. But there are many times that the receiver wants to give the appearance that he is going to not only pop out to catch the ball but that he might reverse his direction and go to the basket. Also, he might want to pop out and then continue over to the ball handler to get a handoff.
While this catching, cutting and curling action is going on, the other three players are usually 'meandering' around watching the offensive man in front of them for a clue as to what to do. If a receiver cuts to the basket, then the next man must fill his spot and now this guy becomes the offensive man might want to play with.
While players are meandering into the next position they must be ready to 'burst' when it becomes their turn to play with the ball handler.
