What can he do differently. He got them to game 7. It's not like he can't win elimination games, he's gone past the 1st round a few times.
Kinda dumb to count a game 7 loss in the conference final as negative and ignore winning the two elimination games before that.
And even with the game 7 criticism, he's miles ahead of Hartley who has only been in the playoffs twice since the lockout and guess what, he lost both those elimination games.
