@Action, first of all you've never seen Ay even attempt Shadow Clone so you don't know how many he can make.

Secondly, chakra control matters a whole bunch, but even Kakashi who's a master of chakra control has noted later on that Naruto's simply much better at using the technique than he or anyone else is.

That scenario Ebisu gave out was a hypothetical for Naruto to grasp why chakra control is important. Sakura can't use Shadow Clones.

On topic again though, Kakashi has bad reserves for a high level Jonin like himself. Every fight he's in, he's the one with the stamina disadvantage. So no, it wasn't a lie.
