Milwaukee ? The “Big Three” finally lived up to their billing and just in time.

Behind 24 points from a gimpy Sam Cassell, 23 from Ray Allen and 22 from Glenn Robinson, the Milwaukee Bucks routed the Toronto Raptors 105-89 Tuesday night.

It was the first time in 25 games that the trio surpassed 20 points apiece.

“It’s been a while,” said Allen, who suggested that for the first time in months coach George Karl could concentrate on coaching and not on who’s hurt, who’s hot and who’s not meshing with whom.

“He just sat there and drew up plays for all of us.”

Anthony Mason chipped in 18 points for the Bucks, who inched closer to a playoff berth while preventing the Raptors from clinching a postseason spot.

“We’ve got one more,” Karl said. “There’s not a lot of celebration tonight. There’s got to be preparation and rest.”

The Bucks, Raptors and Indiana Pacers are all 41-40 and fighting for the final two playoff berths heading into tonight’s season finales. Milwaukee owns the tiebreaker over both Toronto and Indiana.

Dallas Michael Finley scored 35 points and Dirk Nowitzki returned from a four-game absence to add 24, taking the Mavs’ bid to win the Midwest Division to the final day of the season.
