And the king was indeed Mateen Well is the perfect place to start. Cleaves, the hero of the Spartan team.

Peoples' Playbook 1 Naturally, the country's premiere leadership school offers a renowned staff of courteous instructors. Amid much controversy as to why he did not join the NBA, Mateen remained in college and led his team to its second title in NCAA history: This is what I came back here for," he said Monday night. And to add icing to the cake, he was injured in the second half with a sprained ankle and managed to only be out a mere 4:29. Michigan State won its first title way hack in 1979, when a guy named Magic Johnson played for them. Going into the game on Monday, Michigan was heavily favored. However, not everyone was counting out the young Florida team. Despite losing, I think that Florida should be extremely happy, both with the outstanding season that they had and their performance in the tournament. I mean, who else can say that they beat Duke and North Carolina to advance to the final game? Not many teams at all. One of Florida's strengths goir.g into the game was their depth. However, the Spartans also utilized their bench and quenched the domination of Florida subs. Unfortunately for Florida, Cleaves was not going to let up. He was dominating in the first half, breaking Florida's press as Michigan State built a 43-32 lead. In the second half, he was their limping leader after spraining his right ankle. This is as storybook as it gets for Mateen," Michigan State coach Tom Izzo said. "He gave up a lot of money, a lot of things to be back here. He has the heart of a lion. He has done it for four years, not just one," Izzo said. "That's why you love him. He's what our program embodies." Florida's Mike Miller was also impressed with Cleaves' speed and drive. "Mateen Cleaves is a great point guard. He showed it tonight." "Senior leader, been through a lot of things. I think he did a good job of running his team and he knocked down shots." The Spartans (32-7), the only top-seeded team to reach the Final Four this year, finished 33-for-59 from the field (56 percent), the best in the tournament. Twenty-one years ago Michigan State captured its first title by beating Indiana State and Larry Bird. That game in 1979 was a pivotal game, turning many fans to college basketball's finale. The Magic vs. Bird match-up was too much for people to resist. Magic Johnson was present in the stands, complete with a Spartan sweatshirt to support his alma mater. "I knew they were going to wiri, especially when Mateen came back this year," Magic said. "It's been tough waiting these 21 years. But they have been great the last couple of years, and I knew they were going to win it all." Overall, I enjoyed the tournament this year. Even though my Heels did not advance to the final game, I was so happy that they managed to
