Timeline

2013

Rubin moved to Florida, eventually owned an International House of Pancakes restaurant, and never coached another game of basketball. He died of cancer in Miami in 2013. He was survived by his wife, Marsha.

1973

Rubin joined a team whose only holdover from its 1966–67 Championship run six seasons earlier was aging veteran Hal Greer. His introductory press conference occurred almost simultaneous to the ones held in Charlotte and Greensboro, North Carolina in which Billy Cunningham announced that he was going to play with the American Basketball Association's Carolina Cougars beginning with the upcoming season. An 0–15 start started a watch of just how bad the team could get. After 51 games and a 4–47 record—and while in the midst of what would become a (then)-record 20-game losing streak—Rubin was fired in favor of player-coach Kevin Loughery on January 23, 1973.

1972

Rubin left his positions at LIU to sign a three‐year contract to head coach the Philadelphia 76ers on June 15, 1972. He succeeded Jack Ramsay who had resigned three months earlier after the ballclub finished third in the Atlantic Division at 30–52 and failed to qualify for the postseason. Both Al McGuire and Adolph Rupp had declined offers. The Sixers were so desperate to find a coach that they actually took out an ad in a local paper, which was seen by one of Rubin's friends.

Its reviews were unfavorable. The only criticism from Clive Barnes of The New York Times was directed at Gordon. He explained, "...The play, with interminable and unfunny dream sequences, with dialogue that seems to have been picked up wholesale from a TV situation comedy and characters of no real comic depth or perception, does not have a great deal going for it." His critique was published the day after the comedy opened and closed with only one performance at the Royale Theatre on May 4, 1972.

1949

Rubin played college basketball while attending University of Louisville from 1949 to 1951. He coached the 1972–73 Philadelphia 76ers — at the time, the worst team (a 9–73 win–loss record) in the history of the NBA — for the first 51 games of the season. His record was 4–47.

1925

Roy Rubin (December 9, 1925 – August 5, 2013) was a former college and professional basketball coach.
