The U.S. Men’s Olympic basketball team belting “A Thousand Miles” on their flight proves them to be your soulmates

While making their way down to Rio (lol), players Jimmy Butler and Kyrie Irving began passionately singing the 2001 hit.

DID Y’ALL NOTE THE AIR PIANO.
The precious footage was posted to player DeMarcus Cousins’ IG, as well as as to DeMar DeRozan’s account. In both clips, players are trying to stifle their laughter while Butler and Irving demonstrate their above average stage presence.

And as DeRozan and Complex hilariously point out, DeRozan’s video reveals that Carmelo Anthony was — somehow– COMPLETELY unmoved by their stellar rendition.
HOW?!
