With two days off before Wednesday’s matchup with the Memphis Grizzlies, the Celtics are clueless as to their identity.

“We’ve got to play better than that,” (Kevin) Garnett said. “We all gotta have some pride in ourselves, man. We gave up 100-something points three games in a row, not even being close. We gotta at some point take it personal, you know? It’s not all on the coaches, it’s on players.”

Garnett said the players have to be held accountable.

“Yeah because we built something here,” he said. “I’m not living in the past or nothing but the reason why guys came back [to the Celtics] and made a commitment to this team because of what we [established] that we’ve been known to defend. We’ve gotten away from that so we have to go back to our origins to figure it out.

“We’ve got to find some self pride in here. I don’t know what we are right now.”
