@JackyLemanski @AlbanyAlphas Do I have to separate you two?

[Rourke Danyals @RourkeDanyals]

@TheSaintOfBBall Wishing you all the best, Oscar. Call anytime you want.

[Rourke Danyals @RourkeDanyals]

@no1mothballer Quite honestly, I thought you were dead. Certainly your career is.

The Alphas can offer you a contract, but it won't be as a player. Let me know if you're interested.

[Rourke Danyals @RourkeDanyals]

@HanielLemur @AlbanyAlphas Absolutely. Thank you for all your hard work this season and previous seasons. We're absolutely going to miss you.

[Rourke Danyals @RourkeDanyals]

Losing Game 7 of any playoff series isn't easy on anyone. Tenfold for the finals. I'm proud of each and every one of you, @AlbanyAlphas, you played your bloody hearts out. Everyone here should be proud of all of their accomplishments this year. I know that I absolutely am.

GG.

[Rourke Danyals @RourkeDanyals]

I am soo extremely proud of this team. You worked your asses off, and absolutely deserve to play on the largest basketball stage in the world. Looking forward to seeing you in Winnipeg.

#GoAlphas!

When the @AlbanyAlphas hired me back on this year, they asked me to do one thing: Get Albany back to the finals within 3 years.

It's been a crazy season, and I know I made some decisions people weren't too sure about but... First year back and going to the finals already.

[Rourke Danyals @RourkeDanyals]

@3XThreatTerry @KassiusWaterson Well-done to you both and to all of the @AlbanyAlphas . It's not a sure thing yet though, we have at least one more game. Rest up, and bring us back home to the finals.

[Rourke Danyals @RourkeDanyals]

@FBABasketball So proud of this team! @AlbanyAlphas , take a day off, you deserve it. Bravo!

05/11 RESULTS - LOR@ALB: W Alphas 118, L Firestorm 114. PotG: Kassius Waterson

[Rourke Danyals @RourkeDanyals]

@AlbanyAlphas @WallaBBaller Yes, and I think both he AND we have benefitted from said trade, don't you think?

If you disagree, perhaps we could have a PRIVATE conversation about it in my office? Hmmmm?

[Rourke Danyals @RourkeDanyals]

@3XThreatTerry @RealTannerHunt You guys did fantastic today. Proud of all the @AlbanyAlphas !

[Rourke Danyals @RourkeDanyals]

@HanielLemur It's an honor and a pleasure to share the court with you again, especially as your coach. I'm gonna work hard to make this a fantastic season for all the @AlbanyAlphas.

[Rourke Danyals @RourkeDanyals]

@3XThreatTerry My door is always open. Come on by.

[Rourke Danyals @RourkeDanyals]

@JackyLemanski @AlbanyAlphas Don't worry, I would never be so flippant until we got to know each other.

[Rourke Danyals @RourkeDanyals]

Personally, I like to lay everything out on the table. And if you do good and if we do good, then we continue to do good together. If we don't hold up our end of the bargain, that's on us. And if you hold up your end of the bargain, there's no reason not to continue. That's it.

[Rourke Danyals @RourkeDanyals]

One of the things that amuses me about how free agency has changed over the years is the fact that players have assumed more risk in this process while still under the guise that it's actually better for them. When I started as a general manager the first time around...

[Rourke Danyals @RourkeDanyals]

Also be able to have an option to cancel, but for that much money for that long, no player is going to opt out of such a contract. But there's nothing stopping a club from leaving you high and dry after 2 years.
