Check out SINow—SI.com's daily live talk show hosted by Maggie Gray—at 1 p.m. EST for complete coverage, including roundtable conversations with SI writers and guests such as Joe Montana (16), Dan Marino (13), Marshall Faulk (28) and Alfred Morris (46).

SI COMMENTARY
Cody Zeller's Rookie Diary
I got a lot of texts and tweets from friends about my missed dunk on Blake Griffin. Honestly, it wasn't as bad as it looked. I had a running start and he bumped me just enough that I didn't get to the rim, so I ended up just trying to get it there. Unfortunately, as you can see, I didn't. All my teammates are still talking about it, joking about how high I was. He's Blake Griffin and I'm a rookie, so I'm not going to get the benefit of the doubt on that call. You win some, you lose some. You're going to get dunked on, you're going to dunk on someone. Maybe 10 years from now people will look at that picture and think I did throw it down.
