The Toronto Raptors have won just one game in the NBA Finals, but Kawhi Leonard’s camp is already flexing on the Warriors. After Thursday’s Game 1 victory, a billboard with Leonard’s picture popped up in Oakland saying “The King Of The North is Coming,” with the teams the Raptors have beaten in the playoffs crossed off. The billboard was reportedly put up by New Balance, the company that sponsors Leonard.

The Raptors have reason to be confident after Game 1, beating the Warriors 118-109 despite an inefficient game from Leonard who scored 23 points on 5-of-14 shooting. Game 2 is Sunday in Toronto.
