Kyrie Irving threatens haters over Karl-Anthony Towns shade
NY Post
One New Jersey basketball star has another’s back.
Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving called for a cease of attacks on Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns, specifically mentioning those chiding him for “changing up his tone.”
“Y’all gotta stop making fun of my brother KAT. I’m done with y’all,” Irving said recently on Twitch.
“Stop making fun of my brother KAT. It’s over for that, it’s a f—king wrap, I’m letting you know that if you repost that s–t again or meme him up, I’m attacking you. Not like that physically, GTA (popular video game franchise “Grand Theft Auto”), but I’m attacking you.”
Towns, born and raised in the Garden State, has been accused by some of code switching, which Brittanica describes as the “process of shifting from one linguistic code (a language or dialect) to another, depending on the social context or conversational setting.”
Those on social media have posted interviews in which Towns’ inflection may change during the segment.

The worst team in baseball since Friday the 13th of June caught a rare break when Tuesday night’s game versus the consistently feisty and perennially overachieving Brewers was postponed. The surprise cancellation spared the sagging Mets another potential loss, and for 18 more hours halted the worst kind of negative momentum an alleged playoff team could possibly have.
