Anatomy of a DUI: What happens when you get pulled over? – Summit Daily News

FRISCO A traveler being pulled over for driving under the influence is common in Summit County.

The Fifth Judicial District composed of Summit, Lake, Eagle and Clear Creek counties and nestled among a number of other trouble areas in northwest Colorado reports the second highest rate of DUIs per capita in the state.

The underlying causes of the areas problem are varied and inflated by tourists flocking to the county during high seasons in winter and summer along with a culture of heavy substance use among visitors and residents.

Punishments for getting behind the wheel while impaired can also be wide-ranging, including losing your drivers license, hefty fines and even significant jail time in more serious cases. But according to officials, many community members dont fully understand the potential consequences of a DUI offense or what to expect when they first see the flashing lights in their rearview mirror.

The idea of getting pulled over is never a fun prospect, and while sober drivers are more likely to leave the interaction with an officers business card than a ticket, anyone exhibiting clear signs of intoxication could be in for a long night.

The biggest thing is that we consider a totality of the circumstances, said Summit County Sheriffs Office Sgt. Mark Gafari, who allowed the Summit Daily News to participate in a ride-along earlier this month to get a first-hand look at how law enforcement agents patrol the area and what theyre looking for in regard to impaired drivers.

Alcohol can affect people very differently, Gafari said. It depends on if they ate, how much, are they used to drinking and a number of other factors. For us, it comes down to the driving actions and our personal observations. But we also have to remember that someone could be driving poorly because theyre lost, or they could be having a medical episode or something else. Our job is to go and have a polite conversation and check whats going on.

Getting pulled over

Gafari said impaired driving arrests are largely based around three factors. The first is called vehicle in motion observations, or the reason a traffic stop was initiated in the first place, such as a driver weaving on the roadway, driving at unusually slow or fast speeds, or exhibiting delayed or strange reactions like stopping at a green light, among other possible reasons.

The second factor is observations during the personal contact phase, in which an officer will try to determine if the abnormal driving behavior may be related to substance use, such as a strong smell of alcohol, slurred speech, trouble understanding an officers questions, slow reactions when handing over paperwork and more.

If an officer feels inebriation might be a contributor to the strange driving behavior, the driver will be asked to complete a standard field sobriety test three roadside maneuvers that have been scientifically validated to obtain indicators of impairment based on International Association of Chiefs of Police and National Highway Traffic Safety Administration standards.

The tests include looking for a horizontal gaze nystagmus (involuntary jerking of the eyes), a walk and turn, and one-leg stand.

We try to do all we can to consider everything that might be going on and give them a chance and have a conversation with them, Gafari said. Because there may be things I dont know, and its important for us to be human about it and explain the reason for the stop and why were doing what were doing.

But if I think you may be unsafe to operate a motor vehicle, I may want to check, and the voluntary roadside maneuver is the best way to do that. That totality including the driving behavior and our interaction will come together to determine if youre placed into custody for suspicion of DUI or not.

After an arrest

If the driver is taken into custody, theyll be asked to submit to their choice of a chemical blood or breath test under the states express consent law. In Colorado, and the rest of the nation, drivers give consent to be tested when theyre applying for their drivers license. If substances other than alcohol are suspected, the test has to be a blood test. Blood tests are performed by medical professionals, who typically take two samples to be sent to the Colorado Bureau of Investigation and an independent lab of the suspects choosing for analysis.

When you sign on the dotted line on the application for a drivers license, youre consenting, when reasonably requested, to give a blood or breath test, Fifth Judicial District Attorney Bruce Brown said. They cant just pull you over for speeding and ask for a test. They have to have a reasonable suspicion that you were driving under the influence.

Drivers can refuse to submit to a test, though that triggers an automatic yearlong suspension of their driving privileges by the Colorado Department of Revenue.

Beyond criminal charges, driving under the influence cases also can include a substantial administrative process at the Department of Revenues Division of Motor Vehicles. For example, if a breath or blood test returns a blood alcohol content of 0.08 or above the national threshold for DUI offenses the DMV automatically will revoke that individuals right to drive for nine to 24 months, depending on whether theyre a repeat offender.

A driver can have their driving privileges reinstated earlier in most cases, even as soon as one month or two months if they refused a blood or breath test though that typically involves agreeing to install an interlock device in their car, essentially a blow-and-go breathalyzer that prevents the car from starting if any alcohol is detected.

Its understandable people get lost in that quagmire because it seems like the court is the place to address this, said Summit County Judge Edward Casias, who handles a majority of the countys DUI cases. Thats purely an administrative process, and the court has nothing to do with it. I cant order the DMV to let someone drive.

After an arrest, offenders will typically be booked into the jail, fingerprinted, photographed, released on bond usually about $1,000 on a first offense and are either issued a summons to return to court or appear before a judge. After the first advisement, theres usually a period between hearings so the alleged offender can review their police reports, properly understand their charges, consult with an attorney and determine what path to take whether its pleading guilty, preparing a defense or providing new information to the District Attorneys Office.

Going to court

According to Brown, first-time DUI offenders frequently negotiate a settlement to a less severe charge of driving while ability impaired (DWAI), and a huge majority of offenders end up pleading guilty.

Over 90% of people who are charged with driving under the influence end up pleading guilty, Brown said. About 5% of those cases are dismissed or reduced to a charge less than a DWAI, and 5% or less would go to trial. Thats based on a nationwide statistical analysis, and weve done them here, and we are pretty consistent.

According to the 2019 Driving Under the Influence of Drugs and Alcohol report prepared by the Colorado Division of Criminal Justice, suspects were found guilty in more than 81% of DUI cases in 2017 statewide, and cases were dismissed in 9.7% of cases.

Driving under the influence charges are typically misdemeanor offenses, but can rise to the level of a felony for individuals with three prior convictions. By Colorado statute, the possible penalties for a DUI offense typically include five days to a year in jail (not mandatory), a $600 to $1,000 fine, 48-96 hours of useful public service, an alcohol evaluation, DUI classes and treatment, and the likely suspension of the drivers license along with court fees. Penalties for a DWAI are somewhat less severe, including a potential two to 180 days in jail, a $200 to $500 fine, 24-48 hours of useful public service, an alcohol evaluation, classes, court costs and eight points off the drivers license.

Casias said individuals with aggravating factors in their cases, such as a high blood alcohol content, also could get supervised probation as part of their sentence, which requires an additional $600 supervision fee per year. Casias also noted that hell almost always include at least a small jail sentence for anyone who comes in with a blood alcoholcontent higher than 0.159.

Its more than twice the legal limit and over three times the limit for a DWAI, Casias said. That indicates the person definitely should have felt it and should have known they were too drunk to get behind the wheel. So theyre going to do a weekend in jail.

But offenders typically end up paying more than just fines, and the costs can add up. With court costs and required treatment classes alone not factoring in potential costs of an interlock device, attorney fees, rising insurance costs or any loss of wages a first-time DWAI offender will end up paying about $1,971, according to Casias. For a first-time DUI offender, the price tag goes up to about $2,560. These numbers assume the lowest level education and treatment course, which requires 21 weeks of treatment and 12 weeks of education courses at $35 a session.

Brown said drivers can receive some form of DUI charge even if their blood alcohol content doesnt reach the presumptive limits for a DUI (0.08) or DWAI (0.05), but said its fairly rare.

The punishments get more severe for reoffenders, though Brown said sentences for first-time offenders are designed to send a message and hopefully push that individual into making better decisions in the future or seeking out substance use treatment, if necessary.

If you go out and talk to your friends or co-workers, many people have suffered a DUI, Brown said. So the fact that someone is convicted doesnt become a moral judgment but an indicator that they might have a substance abuse problem. The primary purpose is to make sure that they get an opportunity to recognize the danger involved, to understand their relationship with alcohol and that they may have behavior that needs to be changed.

Attending classes

To that end, every offender is asked to complete an alcohol and drug education course or, in more severe cases, months of education courses and treatment programs.

For individuals in treatment, sessions are largely based around removing the shame around the offense, increasing awareness and responsibility, and better understanding the circumstances behind the offense.

I think its really important that people understand that this can happen to anybody, said Andrea Brown, a substance use counselor at Alpine Springs Counseling, who teaches courses out of Breckenridge. Ive had first responders, attorneys and everyone else. But this treatment is absolutely, though frustrating, essential. It can help people make better decisions and take the shame out of the equation. Its also important that people know theyll be treated respectfully when they come into one of our groups.

While the education groups are fairly structured, with an actual curriculum mandated by the state, Andrea Brown said counseling sessions are much more flexible allowing participants to push the conversation in the direction most useful to them, whether that means discussions around what is contributing to the areas problems, overcoming triggers or other topics.

According to Andrea Brown, the classes often pay dividends for participants.

Ive only seen a couple of instances where people have come back into the system, she said. That doesnt mean its perfect, but it does mean the average person has learned something, even if its just that they can download Uber. I think what were seeing is that its not just teaching them about sobriety. Were not here to make you feel bad about drinking but rather looking at where your drinking leads to poor decision making that resulted in getting in a car. Were looking at how we can have a more healthy awareness of how to care for ourselves and other people. I do think these groups help dramatically.

Anatomy of a Nightwing/Batgirl Cover – Talking to Meghan Hetrick About Her Crimes Of Passion – Bleeding Cool News

Im a big fan of comics illustrator Meghan Hetrick and I support her work on Patreon. I got the chance to talk to her about her upcoming Cover Alpha Comics variant cover for DC Comics Valentines Day-timed Crimes Of Passion anthology, a cover featuring Barbara Gordon and Dick Grayson coincidentally tunning alongside the news that a certain proposal is back in continuity. You can see work in progress images below.

Bleeding Cool: We see three mockup ideas for this cover (below). The standard approach is to present your favourite idea, the one you can live with and a third one that is so wrong that it persuades the client to choose one of the others. But invariably its the third one that gets chosen, psychically, as if they somehow know. Can you relate to that, and how did it apply to this cover?

Meghan Hetrick: So, while I know that is the norm, I dont ever submit any cover ideas (or commissions in general) that I wouldnt be happy working on. I spend a lot of time with these things, and its a miserable experience working on something you dont want to work on.

Also, my approach for this cover was different. I did Sweet, Sensual, and Sexy basically, I worked my way up the mood meter. Its my first time working with Cover Alpha, and also my first time working DC in years (for cover work), so I wasnt sure exactly where the lines were in regards to what was acceptable.

Bleeding Cool: Dick Grayson and Barbara Gordon is a pairing that has been a) popular with certain fans and b) a pairing often denied them. How much does the denial fuel that desire, do you think, and are DC superhero comics just an exercise in literary BDSM?

I think that the idea of you want what you cant have is fairly universal, and if youre a smart marketer, you know how to play that. Ethical? Likely not. But marketing isnt usually all too concerned about ethics.

As for the second half of the question, being that Im not part of the BDSM community, I dont feel like Im the best person to answer that in any sort of meaningful way. I do think that comics as a whole, not just DC, owe a lot to the BDSM and kink community, in many more positive ways than not.

Bleeding Cool: Batgirl was only introduced as a love interest for Dick Grayson as a reaction to gay panic in comics and especially the Batman comics after the publication of Seduction Of The Innocent by Dr. Frederick Wertham, which condemned Batman and Robin as lovers. Should Dick/Barbara fans, in a weird way, be grateful to Wertham?

This is a very, very loaded question, and a concept that while I am familiar with it, Im woefully out of practice on (my senior thesis was actually about Seduction of the Innocent, but that was almost 20 years ago now). I do believe that anyone who is even remotely interested in how media and culture can collide, the backlash surrounding it, and the implications and fallout of said backlash (the pendulum swing), really owes it to themselves to pick up a copy of Seduction of the Innocent, read it, and form their own opinion.

Just get an e-reader version of it though, because an actual copy is stupid expensive.

Bleeding Cool: When do you know when to stop? Looking at your process for this cover, layers over layers over layers, is there an end game that says this is where the cover ends or is it always this is where the deadline says it must end? How much further could you go? And is there anything you lose from your initial sketches in the process to where you end up?

So, what Im guessing youre referring to (because Im not sure what files youre mentioning), are the WIP saves I did throughout the process. Its actually not a lot of layers there, just a whole lot of different stages of rendering, haha. As to the meat of your question though, its a combination of both this is where the cover ends and this is where the deadline says it ends. My rule of thumb is that if I get to a point where anything else I add just kinda doesnt serve a purpose, then its done. There are always, ALWAYS tweaks that can be made, which can eat up a *huge* amount of time, but that falls into the category of getting precious with a piece, which is a defining trait of folks just starting to draw. I think when you get to the fuck it, Im done stage, while satisfying your clients needs, and can just live with cashing that check, thats when you can probably start calling yourself a Pro, hahah.

With this piece, like I said, there are spots where I could tweak, but they dont really add anything else to it. I wanted a softly lit, human touch on this one, especially with as much as was done digitally, so leaving those mistakes in there actually gives it a bit of life, and makes it not look so clinical. I do feel that sometimes a lot of the energy of a piece can be lost in inks, if you try and just make everything too perfect. Art made by human hands needs to have imperfections, IMO.

Bleeding Cool: You talked on your Patreon about moving from drawing interior comic book pages to just covers and illustrations and gallery shows- more in the career mode of Frank Frazetta or Gerald Brom. What steps are you making in that direction, and what other more contemporary creators can you see following a similar path?

I love telling stories, so Ill always have a love for interior work, Im just not sure if Im a good fit for superheroes, or the mainstream publication format. As Im getting older, Im realizing I have a much more European approach to my ideas and art in general, which is both a good and bad thing, haha.

As for the steps Im taking, Im currently teaching myself how to oil paint, and Im having a fucking blast doing so. They dont lend themselves too well to the monthly format with comics thats so common here in the US, just because of the nature of the medium they take FOREVER to dry, and when I get, on average, about a week to turn a cover around, that doesnt work all that splendidly, LOL. My current slate of commissioned paintings consists of a huge range of licensed properties, and its fun to take characters that are typically seen as essentially throwaway art, and render them in a manner that folks dont really expect to see nowadays. Comics *are* art, and one of the hardest to actually get a handle on. I would love to do my best to elevate the artform. Im not sure if Im necessarily the right person for the job, but dammit, Im going to try. I also have my own projects and characters Ill be fiddling around with, especially once I get more comfortable with the medium, and these will be what I use to start pushing my way towards gallery work.

As for contemporary creators, I can rattle off a few (and I will), but Im not entirely certain theyd be interested. Three folks already doing it are Joe Jusko (of course), Scott Hampton, and Esad Ribic. All three have been major, major influences on me, too. You also have the old guard of Heavy Metal and 2000 AD artists, who dont get anywhere near enough recognition. Folks Id love to see dip their toes into that realm are Cary Nord, Fiona Staples, Becky Cloonan. Mahmoud Asrar has also been painting lately as well, and its gorgeous. Simple truth is that there are more creators I can see following that similar path than I could feasibly name, but its breaking that barrier and getting accepted as real artists, while were still alive, and not 100+ years after were dead (see: all the Brandywine School artists).

Bleeding Cool: How much do you try and create in a vacuum and how much fan reaction do you allow to filter into your work? Can reader reaction to your images that may have not been intended ever taint them for you? Or can you be detatched from it?

At the risk of kicking the internet hornets nest, anymore, I think the only way you can maintain some semblance of sanity as a creator is to disregard almost all comments regarding your work (not ignore, disregard). Now, if you see a pattern emerging with the same thing being said repeatedly, at that point maaaaybe you should investigate into whats being said, and see if it has any merit. So, I do tend to create quite a bit in a vacuum, with very little fan reaction having influence on my work. I will absolutely listen to constructive criticism though the key word there being constructive. If someone just spouts off this sucks or the equivalent thereof, without any reasoning behind it besides that it doesnt fit their personal taste, well, opinions are like assholes and whatnot.

That being said, fan support is awesome, and I wouldnt be where I am today without fans whove supported my art over the years. I think one of the hardest things about being a creator is finding that balance between being true to yourself, and what you want to do, since that creates the best art, and not giving into the trends for a quick buck if you can. Its the internet, theres a fandom and a market for everything, you just need to find your people. My breaks (because there were two) into comics came not from me riding trends, but just by being myself, and thats something Ive done my best to try and stay true to.

And, because it hasnt come up in the questions here, I just wanted to take a second and thank Cover Alpha and DC for the opportunity to work on this cover. All parties involved have been awesome to work with, and it made this a truly fun experience especially revisiting two characters I love drawing, haha. Also, thank you for the thoughtful questions, and your support.

‘Grey’s Anatomy’: What Happened to Jackson’s Daughter? – Showbiz Cheat Sheet

Jackson Avery may not be one of the original characters on Greys Anatomy, but over the past 10 years, the character has garnered a loyal following. Through his years as a flirtatious resident to his tenure as one of the most respected plastic surgeons in the country, Jackson has become every bit Greys as any other character on the show.

While every storyline featuring the former Mercy West doc always has fans tuning in, it was the heart-wrenching story between Jackson and fellow doctor, April Kepner that won fans over. Throughout their story, the couple lost a child and had another, but since Aprils departure two years ago, their daughter has mysteriously disappeared. So, just what did happen to Jacksons daughter?

April Kepner and Jackson Avery joined Greys Anatomy in season six when Seattle Grace and Mercy West merged to form Seattle Grace Mercy West. Jackson was an arrogant young surgeon, and unbeknownst to the other doctors, the son of Harper Avery. April was a fresh-faced, kind-hearted doctor, who was known more for her religious and moral values than her surgical skills.

The two doctors started as best friends, with April actually walking down the aisle with a different man. But in the end, April left her groom at the altar and ran off with the handsome Dr. Avery.

Eventually, April became pregnant. The couple was overjoyed to become parents Sadly, their child died shortly after birth, crippling April and eventually destroying the couples marriage.

It was when the couple was on the brink of divorce that April found out she was pregnant again. April gave birth to Harriet Kepner-Avery the day Owen and Amelia were scheduled to be married.

While Jackson and April tried to give their family another go, April ultimately married Matthew, the man she had left at the altar in the first place.

After Harriet was born, the little girl made multiple appearances on the show. According to Greys Anatomy Fandom, Harriet appeared in 19 episodes of Greys. But when April left the show at the end of season 14, it appears Harriet went with her. Harriet has made scattered appearances since.

Fans have questioned Harriets disappearance on Reddit, noting that her sudden absence makes Jackson look like a neglectful father. This storyline certainly wouldnt fall in line with Jacksons values and character. But is all really as it appears?

Fans of Greys Anatomy know that the children of the main characters often come and go. Several regulars have children, with Meredith Grey herself being the mother to three. But if youre a casual viewer of the show, youd hardly know any of the doctors have children.

Occasionally an episode will show one of the doctors dropping off their child at the daycare or show them at home. But this seasons focus on Meredith and how she used her daughters medical insurance was probably the most we have seen or heard of the Shepherd children in many years.

So where are all the children? Realistically, theyre probably all at school or hanging out at the hospital daycare together.

Fans may complain that the kids dont get enough screen time, and admittedly, they probably dont. But the stories between the doctors are what keeps the show going and if more time was devoted to their home lives, fans would probably be wondering why other characters are getting less time.

As much as fans would love more Greys, theres only so much you can fit into one hour.

Shonda Rhimes Compared Motherhood To Being A Surgeon Grey’s Anatomy – Moms

If youre as big of a Greys Anatomy fan as I am, then you likely remember that phenomenal quote from the beloved Meredith Grey in the episode I Bet It Stung (Season 10, Episode 5). I think many mothers love Greys Anatomy because Meredith often embodies the Super Woman we all dream of becoming: skilled, successful, and a superior mother. In this episode, though, we learn just how difficult it is to balance this type of life.

Here's what I learned my first day at medical school. Think long and hard before choosing to become a surgeon. It takes 100% commitment. You have to be on your A game every single time you walk into that OR. When patients are lying on your table, completely at your mercy, they need to know that when you make that first cut you know what you're doing. No other specialty requires the time, the focus, the complete dedication... Except maybe being a mom.

While I never dreamed of becoming a surgeon, I can wholeheartedly agree with the sentiment behind this internal monologue. After all, the life of a surgeon especially a world class one like Meredith Grey is no easy feat. As we all know, though, the same could be said for motherhood.

Like a surgeon, a mother must remain on her A Game every moment of every day. Theres no off season for moms, and slacking only adds to your workload later on. Just like one wrong step in a routine procedure can cause a medical emergency, one mistake in parenting starts a snowball that has lasting effects (sometimes for a lifetime). You constantly question if youre permanently screwing up your kid as you make the best choices given your often limited knowledge, just like a doctor wonders if their cure will actually fix the patients problem.

Surgeons deal with blood and guts; moms deal with sticky substances of questionable origins along with boogers and fecal matter. Both jobs encounter germs and tiny lacerations, just in very different ways. Because of this, though, both arent jobs for the faint of heart or easily squeamish types.

Just a surgeon outlines worst-case scenarios before any operation, you must account for everything, even the unexpected (which will inevitably happen eventually). Your purse becomes like a triage kit, armed and ready for any childhood emergency from boredom to hunger to any kind of accident. You carefully map out landmines to avoid, exit strategies, and resting spots for any adventure outside of the house. You learn to work well under pressure and think on your feet because, well, you have absolutely no choice to handle life any other way when tiny humans are involved.

Surgeons scrub their hands a lot; moms scrub lots and lots of laundry. Both try to keep their work areas clean and sanitary, just for slightly different reasons. Because of this, though, both moms and doctors go through lots and lots of soap.

Like a surgical unit times every procedure and organizes each doctors schedule, you as a mother have to map out each day with great precision then remain flexible enough to fly by the seat of your pants when one of your children throw a wrench in your plans. Sometimes a surgeon finds additional complications in the middle of an operation; sometimes a mother finds that a trip to the grocery store isnt in the cards because someone woke up with a fever or forgot about that science project thats due the next day.

While motherhood may often feel like a thankless job that pays far less in a lifetime than a surgeon makes in just a year, theyre honestly equally stressful and taxing jobs in their own unique way. Were both in the business of impacting lives, albeit in very different ways. Although doctors often seem like theyre rolling in riches while they drive around cars that cost more than our whole house, I think that mothers get the better payout when its all said and done. After all, when a surgeon rarely sees a patient again after they perform a life-saving procedure, we mommies get to watch our hard work grow and continue to amaze us for the rest of our lives.

The anatomy of a crazy finish: One hole, three groups, nine players, squeegees, drops, three-putts and more – Golf.com

Brendan Steele missed the green on the par-3 17th and made a bogey, which cut his Sony Open lead to just one with one to play. Forty minutes later(!) he finished the 18th hole and dashed off for a sudden-death playoff with Cameron Smith. But what happened in those 40-some minutes in between? Well, a little bit of everything.

It was a wet and soggy day at Waialae Country Club in Honolulu, Hawaii, but there were still a handful of players in contention when they reached the par-5 18th on Sunday. An eagle was in play on 18, and with final-round nerves ready to bite at any moment, so were bogeys. Heres how it all went down.

Mark Anderson, Sungjae Im and Bo Hoag, the third-to-last threesome of the day, were on the 18th green and trying to finish up their rounds. As they waited for grounds crew workers to squeegee water off the green, Webb Simpson, Collin Morikawa and Ryan Palmer stood in the fairway and rough. A couple hundred yards behind them stood Steele, Smith and Kevin Kisner, waiting on the tee, in silence, stationed under massive umbrellas. The rain was pouring. The wait continued.

No one in the third-to-last group was in contention to win, but Hoag was looking to lock up a key top 10, which he did. Once that group cleared, it was go time. Morikawa didnt have a chance to win anymore, but Simpson and Palmer were both at 10 under, one behind Steele. Smith, waiting back on the tee, was also at 10 under and one back.

Simpson, from the wet rough, was up first and hit a low burner that rolled into the fairway, which gave way to Palmers heroic effort from the fairway bunker. The Texan had 261 to the front edge of the green but blocked it way right. It ricocheted off the top of metal scaffolding on a TV screen, and the search for his ball was on.

Yeah, [the wait] wasnt helpful, Steele said. Stood on the tee for a long time, which was OK because I was kind of collecting myself from 17. I was watching Ryan and trying to figure out what he was doing. I was trying to figure out where he could have possibly hit it, and then I was thinking, Oh, hes hit it out of bounds right. I was like, Well, we dont want to do that. So that wasnt positive at all.

Finally, the last threesome was ready from the tee, although the wait ended up being more than 15 minutes. All three players found the fairway and walked ahead, but then came another lengthy delay. Palmers ball wasnt found, so after the three-minute search concluded, PGA Tour rules official Mark Russell told Palmer that rules official Slugger White would take him back to drop.

I told Slugger driving up, I was trying to hit the left side of the cylinders holding up the scoreboard, not the right side, Palmer joked.

The wait continued for Steele and Co.:

Next was Simpson, who had to wave off more grounds crew staffers who were again marching up and down the green with squeegees. He wedged it to 15 feet and had that left for birdie. Next came Palmer, who dropped from the bunker and knocked it just short of the green. He nearly chipped in for par but settled for a bogey and bowed out of the race for the win.

Simpson lined up his birdie putt that would have tied him for the lead, but he barely missed it out to the left. But just when you thought that was it from this group, it wasnt! Morikawa waltzed up to his ball to clean up from 4 feet for birdie, but he missed and then he missed again from 2 feet. It was a rough three-putt to finish for the up-and-comer, who played the last four in three over.

Back in the fairway, with the green finally clear, another 15 minutes had passed since Steele-Smith-Kisner hit their tee shots. Did the nerves get to Steele? Maybe.

The 36-year-old had 245 yards to the hole but hooked it well left, and it ricocheted off the grandstands and came to rest near a galley rope on the 10th fairway.

This is almost in the next area code, said analyst Paul Azinger, who also used his telestrator to draw this handy circle where Steeles ball landed:

Luckily for Steele, he received a free drop due to a temporary immovable obstruction and had about 75 yards left to the pin. He dropped between a tent and the gallery and after a car alarm went off, of course pitched on to about 28 feet.

Although Steele lucked out with his drop, his wayward second shot proved costly. He two-putted for par, but Smith got up-and-down from a bunker to make birdie and force a playoff. The extra hole, the par-4 10th, wasnt as climactic as the 18th, as Smith, the last man standing, two-putted for par to win.

I just had to hang in there, Smith said. No one was playing good golf today seemed like. Conditions got a lot easier at the end there, but just hung in there, and what do you know.

Anatomy

Anatomy of a 3-3 home stand: numbers were average, like the results – The Official Home of the Dallas Mavericks – Mavs.com

To steal a line from the commercials about Las Vegas, the Mavericks and their fans certainly hope what happens at American Airlines Center stays at American Airlines Center.

They really dont want it following them on the road.

Their six-game home stand longest of the season is history and the Mavericks ended with a pedestrian 3-3 record. It just doesnt get more average than that.

So how did they get there? Its not rocket science.

The numbers clearly showed that the Mavericks didnt deserve anything better than what they got during their 11-day stay at AAC. Here, well take a closer look.

First, the good news: The Mavericks averaged 115 points per game and only gave up 111.8 during the six games. Pretty much all of that differential can be traced to the 18-point win over Philadelphia in the finale of the home stand.

Beyond that, the numbers scream out that the Mavericks were utterly average on the home stand.

Rebounding: The Mavericks averaged 44.8 rebounds per game. Their opponents averaged 45.3 boards. That doesnt sound like much, but for a team that has by and large been good at retrieving missed shots most of the season, it wasnt good enough.

Defense: They only forced 9.8 turnovers per game on the home stand. Thats a ridiculously low number. Thats also part of the reason why opponents averaged 91 field-goal attempts per game to 87.5 for the Mavericks. Anyway you slice it, thats 3.5 more chances to score points for the other team. Opponents also were basically even at the free-throw line with the Mavericks.

Free-throw shooting. The Mavericks were 72.3 percent from the line. They shot more free throws than their six opponents, but made less. Thats a lot of free points left on the table.

When you add it up, it was a .500-worthy effort on the home stand.

On the bright side, the Mavericks at least finished it with a solid win against Philadelphia. That creates a smidge of momentum that they can take with them to Golden State on Tuesday and Sacramento on Wednesday.

The Mavericks were about as good as theyve been all season in a 68-41 second half against the Sixers.

When our guys with that kind of force, our crowd is a different kind of crowd, coach Rick Carlisle said. We got great fans, but when we play with this kind of force, our fans take it to another level and it makes it a lot harder on opponents.

And, considering Kristaps Porzingis did not play on the home stand (its possible, Carlisle said, he could return on the road trip), the Mavericks at the least were able to tread water.

Real proud of the guys for hanging in, Carlisle said. This has been a very difficult, challenging stretch for a lot of reasons the frequency of the games, the level of the opponents, some of the losses have been very close and difficult. And after last night, its easy to get down. But guys hung in.

The Mavericks have been better on the road all season than theyve been at AAC. With nine of their next 11 games on the road, they hope they can make a charge during the upcoming stretch.
