Game 4 of the Brooklyn Nets and Milwaukee Bucks series has stolen all the attention on Sunday afternoon. After the Bucks walked away with the victory to even the series up at two apiece, Fiserv Forum was evacuated, with the reason being a reported fire inside the arena.

What a bizarre turn of events. The coaches and players were getting ready for media when the arena was evacuated and emergency services showed up to the scenes.
Steve Nash has spoken to reporters, but now Fiserv Forum is being evacuated. The team is currently evacuating the building, a Nets spokesperson says.

The situation is extremely fluid and just adds more storylines to an already jam-packed evening in Milwaukee.
We’ve all been evacuated from the arena. Here are team busses. Waiting to see if we are getting back in. #nets #bucks pic.twitter.com/IkwBh7Ux0O

The Bucks were able to climb back into the series and tie it at two games apiece after the Nets took the first two games of the series. James Harden has yet to return and to add more insult to injury, Kyrie Irving left the game and didn't return and his status is questionable as far as making an appearance in the series as they head back to Brooklyn.
Back to the fire alarms, it took an awfully long time to get out of the arena for some of the personnel.
The players have been allowed back into the arena after fire alarms went off in Fiserv Forum. Jeff Green said the team was sitting in the locker room for roughly 15 minutes before they were ushered out of the building. https://t.co/blyBquMQP7

What an eventful evening in Milwaukee and now the series– suddenly all knotted up– will head to Brooklyn as the Nets try and find a way to climb back into it.
