Pierce, Luke, & Doc check in after day 3

Celtics Waive Smith and Johnson

According to the Celtics twitter feed, the team has waived guard Jamar Smith and forward Chris Johnson.  Both players were invitees to camp and both were very long shots to make the team.   Two invitees,  Stephane Lasme, a 6'8" forward and Mario West, a 6'5" guard/forward, are still with the team in camp.  This brings the roster down to 18 players including 13 guaranteed contracts.  With Delonte West pretty much guaranteed to make the team, that leaves 4 players fighting for one last spot: Tony Gaffney, Von Wafer, Lasme and West.
