If you're him, you're out of the league right now because you care about the wrong things. Not intended to be a personal attack, but Herb is who he is because he's built different. He wasn't looking to maximize his earnings, the Pels offered him $53 million and that was more than enough for a man who's idea of a vacation is to go down to the local fishing hole.
I suspect he'll walk away from his NBA career with more money remaining than most players that made 3 times what he will have earned.

They gave him the maximum amount they could possibly give him and did it before he broke out as a shooter. It was a win/win situation and it paid off very quickly. Both sides did their jobs.

lol what. He doesn’t have to care it’s for his agent to negotiate. I was mostly joking, I love the fact that he took way less than deserved and pelicans have him on a bargain. But either way, no way in hell, even before the 3 point breakout, he couldn’t have gotten more than 12-13 a year. Especially when you see some of the other 129 players in front of him getting more. Either way pelicans are lucky for once
