Williams faces SPCA complaint over dog's death
NEWARK, N.J. (AP) -- Jayson Williams faces an animal cruelty complaint for allegedly killing his dog with a shotgun three years ago.
Former New Jersey Nets player Dwayne Schintzius told investigators he and Williams bet $100 that Schintzius could not drag Williams' Rottweiler out of his house. Schintzius said he won the bet and told Williams to pay up.
An angry Williams went inside, returned with a shotgun and killed the dog, Schintzius said. The former teammate told investigators that Williams pointed the gun at him and told him to clean up the dog's remains 'or you're next."
Williams, 36, still faces a retrial on charges of reckless manslaughter in a limo driver's death.

There's a much better basketball book titled "Loose Balls." It's an oral history of the ABA.
This makes me sick
