Not a very good quote with regards to Fabs or TD."It's a bad thing for him, because T.D.'s not in a great condition, and he's having the opportunity to play, to get on the court and to get the feel for the game that he kind of lost. Now he can't play, so it's a tough one."
Surprised this hasn't been posted yet...
Fabricio Oberto Medical Update
SAN ANTONIO – The San Antonio Spurs today announced that Fabricio Oberto will miss the team's next two games (3/27 vs. L.A. Clippers and 3/29 at New Orleans) due to atrial fibrillation.
Yesterday Oberto felt abnormal sensations in his chest. After being seen by the team's medical staff he had an EKG which confirmed he was experiencing atrial fibrillation. He then underwent a cardioversion which restored his heart to its normal rhythm.
Over the next four days Oberto will receive daily EKG exams to confirm that his heart maintains its normal rhythm. Barring any unforeseen complications, he is expected to be available for the Spurs-Thunder game on 3/31.

Get well Fab.
Good health is worth a fortune that we all take for granted at times.
I am confident that the outstanding staff at Spurs central will take care of Fab.
Fab is cool.

Update from before the Clippers game.
Doctors to keep close eye on Oberto
By Jeff McDonald
Fabricio Oberto has had three episodes of atrial fibrillation in the past 23 months. If it happens again soon, Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said, Oberto's heart condition will be cause for grave concern.
"When you're seriously concerned is when it starts to happen more frequently, when the bouts come much closer together," Popovich said before tonight's game against the Clippers.
Oberto's first occurence with the condition, an arrythmia hallmarked by heart flutters, came in April 2007. He had another episode in October of last year, just before the start of the regular season. IThis time, as in the previous instances, doctors used an electric shock procedure to get Oberto's heart back in rhythm.
"If all of a sudden he starts getting one every three months or every four months, then we'll really start to wonder what the is going on here," Popovich said. "At this point, they say they've been far enough apart that as long as they get it back in check, he's fine."
Obert has been ruled out of tonight's game, as well as the Spurs game Sunday in New Orleans. He is scheduled to visit the doctor Saturday and again on Monday. If his heart checks out, he should be able to return to the court after that, Popovich said.
Oberto is a warrior....god bless you fab...best of wishes...get well soon
My prayer is for you Oberto, get well soon. Dont push it,just take it easy. You are part of SA family
We need Oberto to keep our big-man rotation at its peak. It's good to know that he's fine now.
