Ovi was on the way down when Bruce was the coach. I think he was given too much rope. A few years ago he came into the season out of shape; his theory was that since he had some minor injury issues the previous year, not working out int he summer would allow himself to heal. To nobody's surprise, it led to even more injuries the year after. Then last year he came into camp downright fat. There's pictures of him that are no good. He's lost that speed that let him blow past or through defenders; he's really predictable, but when he was at the top of his game he couldn't be stopped. Now, he's predictable and stoppable. He needs to change his game up.

Edit: He's still got a monster shot, but he's in position to fire it off far less than he used to be.
