I don't know if I have read your question correctly, but I'll try.
On release - you try to get and hold positioning
On rim - You still try to win the first step, but it pretty much breakdown into chasing the ball
The advantage is to the offense when playing rim instead of release. So yes it is to my advantage half the time. But the argument that less contact occurs seems to be off base from my observations from the sideline. I think it's actually the opposite.
But what do I know, according to some of the posters on this board, I'm just a dumb coach who lowers the opinions of referees about many other coaches
