Once they take the court, it is the official's game. That's not selfish, that's the way it has to be. A comptetitive contest, especially one as subjective as basketball, is only fun when both sides can depend on impartial judgements. The moment it appears that the decisions are being based on something other than the agreed upon rules, it begins to be less fun.

How does that make it the officials' game? It just makes it a properly officiated players' game... if that's what "the officials' game" means, then I agree.

It makes it a properly officiated game. To the players, it's their game. To the coaches, it's probably their game. To me, it's my game.
