Nah. It happens all the time. Look at the Adam Morrison thread that's on the first page right now for proof of it. Many, and perhaps most, people are willing to admit when they're wrong. Sometimes it just takes a while.
No, I didn't mention "expectations," but that is certainly part of the equation when you talk about someone like Greg Oden. When Oden gets 4 points and 2 rebounds in a game, he's "struggling" more than Kwame Brown is when he also gets 4 points and 2 rebounds in a game. That's because we expect so much more of Oden, and his performance is measured against a higher standard. No one is that surprised when Kwame Brown has a bad game, because we never expected that much of him to begin with.

Ed O.
he gathered himself so quicky. i think he is in shape now. i dont mean he is 100% with his knee. just in basketball shape now. i think it was barrett who said something about how he doesnt get tired anymore running back and forth on the court.
Why the hell do you think Oden was so depressed and moody earlier in the season? He clearly wasn't meeting his OWN expectations, much less those of the organization. His teammates were also disappointed in his play; some were even reluctant to pass him the ball because he was playing so poorly. McMillan told a reporter that " . . . there are certain things you can be patient on, but other things if you continue to see the same mistakes then you have to discipline him in the sense of calling him out and sitting him down.”
