Last year Dave Phillips walked away from Pinz a loser at the hands of Ankur Bhatt. Ankur routed him in the first round, an easy sweep for the eventual champion. Dave didn't score more than four points in any of the three games. Then again he wasn't expected to do well -- his record was 17 - 25. Flash forward one year and Dave is one of the best players in the league. He's taken down Ron twice, Seth twice and Ankur, Yevo, Neil and everyone he's played. That's why he's a favorite to win Comeback Player of the Year and maybe even Defensive Player of the Year. But a recent shoulder injury has taken him off his top game which may cause an early exit on Monday. He'll need to recover quickly if he expects to beat the heavyweights in the West. Every time he tries to extend his left shoulder (he's left-handed) he re aggravates it.
Can Dave comeback again? Can you make two comebacks in one season?
