check your laces

To encourage caution when someone may be in danger of "tripping".

i.e. relax; don't get your panties in a twist; cool it, easy killer.

The situation: You are playing basketball and a friend gets mad because he thinks you fouled him too hard. He gets all up in your face, tries to start a fight, so you say, "Yo man. Back off. For real man, check your laces. You're tripping."
