    I think there is plenty enough credit to go around no? Precious obviously put in the work, Masai obviously targeted him for a while, Nurse has been great developing guys for that leap and rather directly had the most obvious role this season with the mid-season bench demotion seeming to lead directly to the rather dramatic shift in Precious' playstyle and confidence throughout the season.

    We don't need to fight over who to give credit to, this leap is amazing and takes everyone involved.

    Are you trying to tell me Nurse is developing our young players?

    I'm going to give credit to Precious.

    No, seriously, he was playing well at the start of the season, but was missing bunnies all over the place, and getting mad at himself. You can tell his attitude has changed... he still needs the game to slow down for him and play a bit smarter, but that will come as he plays more.

    Nah it’s not bunk and it totally made sense at that time…Masai and Bobby just had no leverage at all.

    Masai and Bobby traded their priced diamond to Pat Riley for a sole carbon….brought this carbon to the lab of Mr. Nick “the mad scientist” Nurse, then told him to do the best that he can to make this a lab grown diamond so Mad Scientist Nicky subjected this carbon under high pressure and under high temperature in a controlled lab environment….fast forward to know, we can already see the glitter.

    that’s the simplest way to explain it

    so gtfoh….But I’m giving All credit to Nick Nurse

    Scottie however is no carbon, he is already a diamond needing refinement for a nice engagement ring
    Goldblum is 100% correct. There was a lot of media comment after it was revealed that Precious was a Giants of Africa Alum. And you don't mine diamonds by turning carbon into precious stones. You dig up the ore and remove the unneeded parts to reveal the gem. True, it is cut and shaped afterward, but all the cutting and shaping in the world doesn't turn carbon into diamond. It has to be found.

    They didn't 'take whatever they could get for Lowry' -- that's bunk.

    Masai has been watching Precious since he was a teenager and is well aware of the potential there, probably better than most anybody.

    Just cause you (we) couldn't evaluate the possibilities -- don't for a second think that Masai & Bobby didn't have an idea of what was achievable.

    Masai said "you're mine now." -- not "You were the best we could get."

    gtfoh

    Next thing you'll be saying Masai and Bobby just randomly guessed when they drafted Scottie but it was "all credit" to Nick who made him great.

    By all means, celebrate Nurse. He deserves it.

    But Masai and Bobby do every bit as much, as well.

    Precious doesn't miss put backs and bunnies and easy layups anymore. That was his big weakness earlier in the season. Dude is also straight up confident now. He was taking it too Embiid on offense and making him look silly. We got a good one.

    Yes Masai and Bobby took whatever they can get for Lowry

    But IMO, all the credit to Nick Nurse for finding that discovering that “something” from Precious which accelerated his development this season that Spoelstra could not.

    Pre season Precious was ok.
    He had to learn how to play with the vets.

    All credit to nick. Precious was a disaster with the ball the first couple months. He's my MIP.
