The latest Milwaukee Bucks Daily is here as we look at the long list of elements behind the Bucks’ improved play on the defensive end under interim head coach Joe Prunty.

In today’s edition of Milwaukee Bucks Daily, we look at the numerous factors behind the Bucks’ defensive resurgence since Joe Prunty assumed head coaching duties, the Wisconsin Herd make a change to their roster, and much more.

As if there weren’t enough reasons for why making a midseason coaching change was the right and necessary thing to do, the Bucks’ improved productivity and production on the defensive end since Prunty took over the coaching reins nearly a month ago have shored up what had been a sore and tiring subject for all fans under the watch of former head coach Jason Kidd.

Like you can each and every day, keep on coming by here at Behind the Buck Pass to get the latest coverage, analysis and postgame reactions that relates to the Bucks as well as the Herd.
