Indiana State's Larry Bird (33) gives a helping hand to a fallen Magic Johnson of Michigan State during the final game of the NCAA men's basketball championship in Salt Lake City in March 26, 1979. In 1979, Bird and Johnson were already stars, and the game was hyped as a showdown between them, but cable TV hadn't yet saturated the country with college hoops. In fact, several Indiana State players said they never saw Johnson play until the Final Four that season. (AP Photo)
