Larry Bird and Indiana State faced off against Magic Johnson and Michigan State in the 1979 National Championship Game. <\/p>\n

It was a game that gave a glimpse into the future of two legendary NBA careers, but Bird and his team just fell short. <\/p>\n

Throughout the tournament though, Bird led the field in individual scoring with 27.2 and individual rebounding with 13.4. Out of all mid-major players though, Bird has to be up there as one of the best to come from that level.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
