Answer
well, i think you can use the same way that kid uses it. i've had limited success with shrugs, i think because i don't use them very much. but the few situations where i'm comfortable using them and have experience using them i've had some success. if it fits in with your style and your offense then it can work in whatever way you make it work.  the thing is if you try to force it then they tend to back fire, or if you're telegraphing it. if you can set it up well and execute it then you could have success moving the guy around or setting up various shots.

just get out there and try different things with it. maybe try to recreate the set up in the video. that could be a good first step in figuring out how it could work for you.  that's how i've always learned new technique. watch someone, or a shot that i liked, try to recreate it. try to figure out how it works and more importantly why it works then tweak it a little bit to fit into what i want to do.  hope this helps. good luck.
