TORONTO - It was everything Dwane Casey could have wanted in a start.

It was the other 36 minutes he had problems with.

Exactly 9:56 into the Sunday matinee against the Milwaukee Bucks, Casey's Toronto Raptors had built a 20-point lead.

Life was good. Only 9:17 after that, the 20-point lead was down to two and it was back to square one.
