I enjoyed "Calling the Shots: My Five Decades in the NBA" by the (in)famous Earl Strom. It's out of print, but Barnes and Noble's web site can find you a copy.
I'll also cautiously recommend "Behind the Mask: My Double Life in Baseball" by Dave Pallone. Yes, it's about baseball, and yes, there's the whole homosexuality issue, and yes, Pallone was a "scab" ump. The book is really more about officiating, though, and has a lot of interesting insight on the craft and the people.
"Psychology of Officiating"Â*by Robert S. Weinberg and Peggy A. Richardson looks interesting, but I haven't read it yet.
