I learned a lot about the history of the "uniform mechanics" debate in the NBA by reading the late Earl Strom's book, "Calling the Shots." He talks a great deal about the two schools of thought (one stressing individualism, the other stressing uniformity.) Strom, a decidely "old school" NBA ref, favored individualism and often ran afoul of the league's increasing demands for uniformity.
Unfortunately, the book is out of print. Barnes and Noble's web site found me a copy.
