Weave screen? That’s pretty basic stuff. Wouldn’t exactly call it Old School, or any “school” really. Merry Pookster called it: It will work a couple of times before the other team figures it out, and yes, it’s only an offensive play.

I leave it to the more hoops-savvy snarkers (and there are quite a few among you!) to determine if the play happening here is a weave-screen (it could be the Old Dipsy Doodle). But I reckon it is, based on a.) the confident expressions on Kei$ha’s and Summer’s faces in panel 1, and b.) it results in a basket. Ann was right when she said the opponents wouldn’t be “coaching to defend it“: in fact, it looks like they have the same hapless blond player defending both Keisha and Summer.
