An espn insider article says fabricio oberto is considering a comeback and could possibly return to the spurs. He is in San Antonio now and watched the spurs take on the rockets on saturday. Going through some medical tests and working on his conditioning. "I'll have some tests and we'll see," oberto said.

I'm on my iPhone so just in a minute I will post a link it takes me a while on my phone
Well, that's enough to get a Spurs boner over.
As long as he isn't putting his health in jeopardy.
I thought we already has too many bigs?
Here's a link:

Is ESPN Insider just copying what the Express News said?

OBERTO HOPEFUL: Former Spurs starting center Fabricio Oberto sat in general manager R.C. Buford’s box to watch Saturday’s game against the Rockets, and he was at the team’s practice facility Sunday morning.
Oberto said he will have some medical tests done while in San Antonio before proceeding with conditioning work he hopes will lead to a continuation of his career.
The popular player from Argentina began the season with the Trail Blazers but announced his retirement because of problems with heart palpitations. He also experienced the condition while playing for the Spurs.
“I’ll have some tests, and we’ll see,” Oberto said.

What happened to the other post talking about this? I can't find it. Was it moved?
Ok, the le is not about him, it was about Bonner.

Oberto gonna come back and show Splitter how to play like a man..
Seems suspect. Do we really need six bigs? I love Oberto but really?
So now deal Splitter for any decent perimeter defender or if that fails, for a 80th round draft pick.
We need 5 bigs but only have 4.
I mean we only have 3.
See the "Matt Bonner update" thread. This was discussed.
Some fans are assuming the Spurs want him or are interested in him only because the Spurs are allowing Fab to use the facilities.
It's quite a stretch imo to deduce anything further other than the Spurs being nice to a classy guy that fans and players always liked. Letting him use the facilities to get his professional career back is pretty nice of the Spurs. But that's all it is.
Yeah espn insider just copied this
I'm having problems reading apparently. Can someone point to me where in the article it states that he might return to the Spurs specifically?
Is mysa.com going to send ESPN a cease and desist letter as well?
I think its just people connecting the dots and like someone said already it could just be the spurs allowing him to use the facilities so he could get his career Ba k on track. I wouldn't mind the spurs signing him they could use his toughness even if it is for only limited minutes. He also knows the system already so the transition would not be to hard though things have changed offensively.
That doesn't say anything about playing for the Spurs lol. Teams let other players use their facilities all the time. For all we know he could be talking about returning to international play for Argentina once the worlds and stuff come around.
Well only Tim and Tiago, who sucks are really big, Bonner can't rebound and can't play in the paint, Dice is also not that big, but at least he can still play good basketball and Blair is not that good in defense. Oberto can play defense and I think he can help us in something like 5 minutes per game.
Can he just "retire" for part of the season and then sign with whoever he likes? Why don't other players do that to play for teams they prefer?
I would welcome Oberto back even if its for injury insurance. Spurs can use all the depth they can get for their upcoming rodeo trip that has three freaking back to backs (Spurs look like on those nights and can lose to any team in the league like the Nets last season or Clippers in this one). Bonner may be out a while.
I can't imagine Oberto getting many meaningful minutes on this team. Either he's just trying to get back into the NBA, or he's trade bait.
