What's wrong with what he said?
nothing is wrong with what he said. the OP intentionally left out the most important part of Flip's quote:

" I don’t run anything — and I don’t think many teams in the league do — just to set up a three. I don’t think you can win a championship that way, just as a concept for a team. You run plays to set up a shot that the player is most comfortable with."

meaning, if a player is good at shooting 3's, Flip will call a play for that specific player to take one.
