You can keep saying that but it still isn't true. He understood the deficiencies of the team and tried to get them to play a style that could keep them competitive and they were largely competitive for all three seasons being in the playoff race into the last month of every season. Despite some big free agent acquisitions the team is likely going to pick top 5. Yeah not many people are going to buy the 'bad coach' angle. Bad team? Maybe but not bad coach.
