It is a lot easier to judge the rim. You know exactly when it is going to happen. Guys are going in early only because no one calls it.
The shooter has an advantage in rebounding, in that when you wait for the hit, it is impossible to get across the lane in time to box him out (if the shooter makes an effort). When you go on the release, and the shooter has to wait for the hit, it is easy to box him out.
