Ignore the fans if they are really into the game. I did have a game where I went to the far side of the court and it was very quiet as about ten parents were sitting over there on the losing team. I finally said, "Ya'll are dead over here tonight. Do I need to call something contraversial to liven things up?" One of them responded with "Please, don't do that." We all laughed and the game went on. I wouldn't make a practice of it but from time to time it does help.
