An airing of grievances may have helped the Toronto Raptors avoid nearing playoff extinction. After falling into a 2-1 hole, Toronto now leads the Milwaukee Bucks 3-2 in their best-of-seven first-round series and credits the sudden turnaround to the team clearing the air following its 27-point Game 3 loss.

“It was just a heated film session, a heated film session between coaches and players,” small forward DeMarre Carroll said after Monday’s Game 5 win. “A lot of times when you get in a heated film session, it can go one of two ways — it can go bad or it could go good. “I feel like we came together, we saw the problem and we just try to keep building from this.”
