The difference I noticed in this particular set is that the offensive players sacrificed a potential better scoring position (not rolling to the basket after the pick) for better rebounding position. Like I said I'm probably late to the party noticing this.
Great analysis, and yeah, he's been doing this for a while. I'm pretty sure some (all?) of his out of bounds plays have elements designed specifically to put players in good rebounding position. All of Frank's teams have been top 6 nationally in OR%, and it's because of plays like this. It almost makes the first shot a "bonus" shot. I think it's great, personally, but I can see why a lot of fans don't understand or appreciate it.
I love Frank's style of basketball mainly because you can win a lot of different ways (or different styles of games) and the things he emphasizes (rebounding and defense) are things that (in theory) you can do consistently well. Also, IMO you can recruit the way he recruits and win consistently because you don't always have to have the most skilled or elite players.
However, we've seen plenty of the negative; I really think he has to Frank around with players because if his teams don't at least match the effort of the opponent (if not surpass it) then we aren't going to win.
