One, you don't have to put the whistle in your pocket...most people I've seen go sans lanyard don't. Second, I have no idea how you think someone not using a little strand of rope is making the "game about him." Seems like an over the top statement. Basically, what you're saying is the men and women in the NBA/D-League, probably some of the most professional people you'd ever meet, are making the game about them and not officiating.
