"The entire stadium was filled with red. Hawks fans were on fire. Anytime anybody did anything from their team, the crowd went wild," Milwaukee native Demetra Morgan said.
She has called Atlanta home for 15 years. She and her sister were in the stands for Game 3, representing and rooting for the Bucks.

"By the time the fourth quarter came and we started to take the lead it was like a huge hush came over the arena because all the sudden you didn’t hear the Hawks fans anymore," she said.
Morgan's Rufus King High School classmate Mark Torphy was also there... with this view of the court.
"It was loud, their energy was great. You have to live here to know but it was typical Atlanta," Torphy said
