Welcome to Opposition Intel!

It’s been a long wait since that April night against the Indiana Pacers, but regular season Milwaukee Bucks basketball is finally back!

After going through the preseason schedule with a 3-3 record, the Bucks look primed and ready for meaningful games, which is a good thing considering Wednesday’s opponent, the Charlotte Hornets, certainly shouldn’t be taken lightly.

Andrew writes about the NBA as a contributor over at FanSided’s HoopsHabit. You can follow him on Twitter at @acsnyde.

Let’s take a look at what he had to say.
