Yeah, that Moses just keeps on going, doesn't he?  Seems like just yesterday 
he was leading the 76ers to the title.  Remember "fo - fo - fo - fo?"  First 
guy drafted straight out of high school, now here he is testing the FA waters.

Seriously, an interesting debate is whether Karl would prefer to go with a 
weaker team where he can be a leading scorer so as to pass Kareem (he needs to 
average about 20 ppg for two more years or something) OR whether he'll play a 
backup role to help a team win a title, thus earning his ring.  Strongest 
speculation has him going to the Lakers in role #2.
