By Adam McGee
The latest Milwaukee Bucks Daily is here as the Bucks came away with an opening win that came with much more trouble than it initially appeared as if it would.

If anything, it acts as a reminder that the Bucks will have to work hard to overcome their bad habits, and reach their full potential.
