How about we call him Steve until he proves he can keep this up in the regular season, with more limited playing time and against the better players of the league?

**DOUBLE POST ALERT**

Piatkowski was the "Polish Rifle". There should be some "rifle" reference for Novak. Right now he's just a perimeter threat. Maybe in the future he'll be "No Problem".

It's down to these two:

1. Novakaine
2. Supernova

I was going to make more options, but I really wanted a mandate. This way we'll have a clear winner. I also clarified Supernova(K) to Supernova because that seemed like the consensus preferred selection.

Given the tight voting I would say there is no clear cut 'mandate' and we should go back to the drawingboard. A couple good suggestions came along late in the process (ATM/Sureshot among others), that we should open up to reassessment.

It seems as though trying to make something like a nickname happen just never works.

There is one name I don't think anybody mentioned yet.

There are people comparing him to a poor man's Reggie Miller .

So... how about Steve 'Miller Lite' Novak?

Nope.

I think this means we should just throw out these two names and pick a new set, or just give up altogether and let the name come naturally. I mean, some people may have just clicked on the wrong choice by accident. Hell, it happened in Florida.

I want to change my vote to Steve Novak. Shouldn't that be an option? NOt to give him any nickname for now? I wonder how many votes that would have gotten?
