Celtics cut Rodney McGruder, Christian Watford, Erik Murphy; more coming


Boston began trimming it's roster today from the 20 available bodies for training camp down to the 15 allowed during the regular season:


There are no surprises here, although there was a bit of speculation that Murphy, a second round pick of the Bulls last year, might have an outside shot at sticking with the C's.  You can expect Frazier to be cut as well after the final preseason game tomorrow night.

That leaves just one more spot to go, which is almost certain to be the newly acquired Will Bynum, unless the Celtics pull off another trade in the next few days.  Via Mark Murphy of the Boston Herald:

Will Bynum, who is expected to be waived this week after coming over from Detroit in last week’s Joel Anthony trade, was, as expected, a ghost yesterday. 'He’s not here,' Stevens said simply.
