With Kyle Lowry and DeMar DeRozan having subpar performances in the first round, the Toronto Raptors needed a group effort to advance past the Indiana Pacers.

"Myself and Cory (Joseph) come from teams with a tradition of depending on everyone," said DeMarre Carroll, who had just three points but spent nearly all of his 37 minutes on Paul George.

"I felt like this series showed that everyone in this locker room was depended on and that's what we had to do. We had to come out as a team. DeMar DeRozan wasn't going to beat this team alone. Kyle Lowry wasn't going to beat this team on his own. It had to be a group effort."

"We just pushed ourselves and the team," Lowry said. "Everybody that played, (the) bench, every last man in that locker room, they put it on the line."
