Maybe I'm reading too much into social media, but in a lot of the posts by the Celtics and videos, he doesn't seem happy to be here, or he just has a sad look in most of them...

Seems fine to me. Were you looking for cartwheels?  :)

He might have been a bit nervous and still processing the trade. Didn?t seem disappointed to me, though.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

You're reading too much into it. You sound like our President, telling a CNN reporter she never smiles  :laugh: He's Montenegrin, they don't smile much  :police:

But he did on this occasion:

Quote
?Whenever we played here, honestly, like, if I go walk in the streets or whatever, go to restaurants, people [would] come up to me, being like ?come to Boston,?? he said at his introductory press conference on Friday morning.

Almost 15 years into his NBA career, and countless ?Vucevic-to-Boston? rumors later, he finally landed with the Celtics.?So, some wishes came true,? he said with a smile.

LOL. Yeah I didn't want to sound like TMZ, but I was just browsing the Twitter pics/videos and posts of him talking and the whole time he just looked serious/grim so I was like "uhhh..."

11 points, 12 rebounds and 4 assists including a big one late to White

We got our Horford replacement. And yeah, I think like Simons and others, Vucevic will improve on the defensive end and be motivated to do so as well.

Seems excited to be here if you ask me! Postgame interview below.

Love it.  Just a solid vet.  It?s always interesting watching familiar guys with a different lens as a home fan.  He was definitely doing a lot more on offense than I ever gave him credit for as an opponent.  He seems like an excellent fit.  I think we?re going to see some really fun offense when this team is clicking. 
Yup

His passing from the big spot is something we haven't had since big Al. He made atleast 2 high level passes in his debut.

Yeah.  I think he's a difference maker on offense.  Joe has got to be thrilled to have a legit weapon at center again.

Defensively he won't remind anybody of Timelord, but he made an improvement between halves.  He's a smart player.

Vooch postgame interview with reporters. Can tell he has a high BBIQ. I think Nikola is going to be a great fit.
