Having ushered for one of Ken's talks where he talks about push vs. pull (Hi Ken! <g>), I think the best way to break it down is push = apply-templates, while pull = value-of. The key being the ORDER of elements in push being decided by the order in the source document, while the order of elements in the pull method being decided by the stylesheet. You're "pulling in" the value, as opposed to letting the XSLT processor "push" the value to you in the order it finds it. The match attribute is just a filter.
With all respect, I think this discussion indicates how far short of a clean, technical distinction is made by "push/pull". It's a handy distinction to make, but a rough one.
