Doc Rivers is a good coach. (better then stan van gundy IMO)
There are many team that outright dominated in some seasons (DALLAS MAVERICKS, SACRAMENTO KINGS) and didn't win shit. But they might have won if Phil Jackson was the coach.
Also, asking if he is the best is an opinion. I think he knows how to pull a team together. He has a great offensive scheme. so on so forth. That is my opinion, I could be wrong.

Of course this is all opinion, that's what's fun about it.
My point, is that Jackson hasn't won as an underdog. He always had the team with the most talent when he did win.
He had the best player in the history of the game for most of his titles. He had the best big man in the league in an era when most teams didn't have a big man for the rest, save this year.
This year nobody in their right mind thinks he would have won had it not been for Garnett's injury.
Here's a good question. Do you think if Jackson had been coaching the Nuggets this year, and George Karl had been coaching the Lakers, that the Nuggets would have won it all this year?
