Joel Embiid Tells Steph Curry He's Thinking of Creating New Nickname

Programming note: Watch the pregame edition of Warriors Outsiders tonight at 6 P.T., streaming live on the MyTeams app.

Steph Curry plays for the Golden State Warriors. Joel Embiid plays for the Philadelphia 76ers.

But they are teammates off the court.

Back in October, we learned that Curry helped Under Armour sign Embiid to an endorsement deal.

And on Wednesday morning, Embiid was the guest on the latest episode of Curry's YouTube series, "5 Minutes From Home."

The 76ers played the Warriors at Oracle Arena on Jan. 31. The night before, the superstars took a ride together over to Ayesha Curry's restaurant, International Smoke.

Shortly before they got out of the car, Curry brought up Embiid's nickname, "The Process." And then Embiid said something that is surely going to cause a stir in Philly.

"'The Process' is never gonna be over. You gotta win a championship and when you win a championship, it starts over. So 'The Process' is always gonna go ... I do like it, mainly because of the history of how we got here. So that's why I like it.

"But I've actually been thinking about, you know, creating something else. I'm tired of 'The Process.' I'm tired of it."

Whoa! 

Embiid's Twitter banner simply reads: "THE PROCESS," and his Twitter bio simply says: "PROCESSING.........................."

This is about to break the Internet for sure.
