I wouldn't even mind, "You were trying to make ten good rebounds. Did you?" I think for a parent to push a kid a little to improve and to work hard at something is okay. It's just that when winning is everything, there's a problem. I feel the same way when a team is winning by 25 or so and the crowd doesn't want the second string put in, or they boo when the second stringers make some mistakes.
