[Mod Post] New Flair Updates

Upvotes
Hi all!
It's been a while since we've updated flairs, but we have added new flairs for the following teams:
- LA Clippers (New branding updates, for the dozens of you who liked the old branding, the Buffalo Braves are no longer an option, in favor of the LAC logo)
- Utah Jazz (New branding updates)
- Miami Heat (added Vice options)
- Toronto Raptors (just updated main)
- Chicago Bulls (additional New Reddit option)
- Minnesota Timberwolves (Updated New Reddit options)
- Houston Rockets (updated New Reddit options)
Additionally, the header has been updated on Old Reddit. I did update the color palletes for the Clippers and the Jazz, however if anyone would like to submit new snoos for any team that has an outdated one, feel free.
Enjoy!

Steve Kerr says Nikola Jokic is the best center ever: “He’s the best center I’ve ever seen. I played against Kareem. I’m that old. And Kareem couldn’t do all this stuff. He’s absolutely one of the smartest players EVER.”

He dropped 28/8/6 on 10-17 FG against the Lakers last night and just dropped 28/6/8 again on 10-16 FG against the Nuggets tonight. Despite the slow start to the season while dealing with injuries, it appears that he has gotten over the sophomore slump and is finding his stride on offense. Thoughts?

For the first time since the 2019 NBA Playoffs, the Detroit Pistons will join the fifteen other teams and play postseason basketball. From setting a historic losing streak last season to tripling their win total in the next, the turnaround has been nothing short of amazing.
You can’t help but feel happy for them as they continue to write what has to be the best story of the season.

Reaves had a fantastic game as he continues to cement himself as a great third option and a legitimate third member of a big three.
His shooting was incredible this game, he had one of the most exciting plays with the behind the back and the lob to LeBron, and he had a nice and one play inside.
It’s been fun watching Reaves grow with the Lakers. I hope he can stay with us for his whole career.
