Oberto sonríe porque llegó el momento de oficializar su vínculo con los Spurs.
EL DATO
7
El número de la camiseta que pedirá Oberto en los Spurs. Es el número que utiliza en la Selección desde 2001, pero en clubes no la usa desde que dejó Atenas, ya que en Europa se calzó la 14.
Oberto viajó para firmar con los Spurs
El pivote será compañero de Manu Ginóbili en el campeón. Hoy tiene previsto llegar a San Antonio para someterse primero a la revisación médica, antes de firmar el contrato. Estará toda la semana en los Estados Unidos.
Fabricio Oberto viajó a los Estados Unidos para plir su sueño. El cordobés firmará el contrato que lo ligará por las próximas tres temporadas con San Antonio Spurs, el campeón de la NBA, en el cual será compañero de Emanuel Ginóbili, tras los éxitos obtenidos en la Selección. Será el primer cordobés que jugará en la Liga más poderosa del planeta. Primero debe superar la revisación médica.
En la mañana de ayer, su agente en Estados Unidos, Herb Rudoy, telefoneó a Oberto para informarle que debía viajar a San Antonio y cerrar su incorporación al conjunto texano, ganador de tres Ligas en los últimos siete años. El pivote de 30 años y 2,08 metros de talla, considerado uno de los mejores en su puesto en el básquetbol europeo, se entrevistará con el general manager de los Spurs, RC Buford y probablemente con el entrenador Gregg Popovich, antes de ser presentado a la prensa local. Oberto tiene previsto presentarse a mediados de setiembre en su nuevo equipo para iniciar la preparación, aunque la pretemporada oficial en la NBA comenzará el 2 de octubre, que incluye partidos organizado por la Liga. En los primeros días de noviembre comenzará la nueva temporada, con los Spurs estrenando su título.
Desde el pasado mes de junio, el jugador está realizando tareas físicas con el preparador y su amigo Javier Guiguet. Oberto no abandonó la rutina de entrenamiento, hasta ayer, que viajó a Texas.
Desde el pasado 14 del corriente, el jugador de Las Varillas y los Spurs tenían acordado de palabra su incorporación, pero debieron esperar para rubricarlo hasta que la Liga oficializara el nuevo convenio colectivo, convenido con el Sindicato de los Jugadores. El primer paso dado por Oberto para llegar a la NBA fue desvincularse de Pamesa Valencia y luego su agente empezó las negociaciones con los distintos equipos; el campeón de España, Real Madrid, Unicaja Málaga, Barcelona y Benetton Treviso de Italia, los más poderosos de Europa. Y en la NBA se contactó con los Spurs, Memphis Grizzlies y Houston Rockets. Pero todo se inclinó hacia San Antonio y el acuerdo por tres años llegó rápido.

The most recent was a broken hand inflicted by a chop from Stephon Marbury in the closing minutes of the Olympics game victory over the US. He was out a couple of months.
He's had an injury with a knee but I don't remember the specifics. Someone could probably pull that info up on him.
how fluent is his english?
I was told by some Argentinean reporters that it's not very good at all. But I don't know for sure.
wow, is he gonna need a translator like Bateer did?
Uh, he's got Manu.
hmm don't think he neeed s a trasnlator we have manu!!!
I can hear it now...Uh, he's got Manu.
"Eh cabron...porque no corres mas rapido?"
"Chinga te guey, esto cansado."

Hopefully he passes the physical. And hopefully he doesn't try to pick number six.
I think number 6 is safe, timvp. Don Harris stands guard over it, anyway.
He's already said he wants 7...that is, unless J.R. Reid objects.
Me too,
Mano to Oberto: "hey pendejo, se' puede reclinarse cuando estas muerto"
Man, that is one ugly dude!! Looks like "Buffalo Bill" off of Silence of the Lambs.
Yeah and Nazr looks like he ran through a burning building.
Actually, from angles he looks like a buff Jude Law. Serious.Man, that is one ugly dude!! Looks like "Buffalo Bill" off of Silence of the Lambs.
