Yao Ming (born September 12, 1980) is a retired Chinese professional basketball player who played for the Houston Rockets of the National Basketball Association (NBA). He was selected to start for the Western Conference in the NBA All-Star Game eight times, and was named to the All-NBA Team five times. At the time of his final season, he was the tallest active player in the NBA, at 2.29 m (7 ft 6 in).
Yao, who was born in Shanghai, China, started playing for the Shanghai Sharks as a teenager, and played on their senior team for five years in the Chinese Basketball Association (CBA), winning a championship in his final year. After negotiating with the CBA and the Sharks to secure his release, Yao was selected by the Houston Rockets as the first overall pick in the 2002 NBA draft. He reached the NBA Playoffs four times, and the Rockets won a first-round series in the 2009 postseason, their first playoff series victory since 1997. In July 2011, Yao announced his retirement from professional basketball because of a series of foot and ankle injuries which forced him to miss 250 games in his last six seasons. In eight seasons with the Rockets, Yao ranks sixth among franchise leaders in total points and total rebounds, and second in total blocks.
Kobe Bean Bryant (born August 23, 1978) is an American professional basketball player for the Los Angeles Lakers of the National Basketball Association (NBA). He entered the NBA directly from high school, and he has played for the Lakers his entire career, winning five NBA championships. Bryant is an 18-time All-Star, 15-time member of the All-NBA Team, and 12-time member of the All-Defensive team. He has led the league in scoring twice, and he ranks third on both the league's all-time regular season scoring and all-time postseason scoring lists. After beginning his 20th season with the Lakers in 2015–16, which set an NBA record for the most seasons with the same team, Bryant announced that he would retire after the season.
The son of former NBA player Joe Bryant, Kobe Bryant enjoyed a successful high school basketball career at Lower Merion High School in Pennsylvania, where he was recognized as the top high school basketball player in the country. He declared for the NBA draft upon graduation, and was selected with the 13th overall pick in the 1996 NBA draft by the Charlotte Hornets, who traded him to the Los Angeles Lakers. As a rookie, Bryant earned himself a reputation as a high-flyer and a fan favorite by winning the 1997 Slam Dunk Contest, and he was named an All-Star by his second season. Despite a feud between them, Bryant and Shaquille O'Neal led the Lakers to three consecutive championships from 2000 to 2002.

So you want to make a meal?
A Breakfast so unreal?
With imagination
Take that apron out
We'll start off nice and slow
(Hey!) Pancakes oughta be simple
Just mix your flour, baking powder
Add salt, and sugar
Sift twice into a bowl
In another beat together eggs and butter
Add milk and you're on your way to
Bacon Pancakes
Makin' Bacon Pancakes!
Take some bacon and
I'll put it in a pancake

Without pancakes
Takes away all the joy
That we could have made
With some bacon covered by a pancake
Bacon Pancake
Quit singing the chorus
It's infectious as Syphilis
We need to focus
Get your head back in the game
Mix the wet and dry
And stop when it is smooth
Now let it sit for 10 minutes
That's enough to go
Watch Adventure Time!
But don't relax quite yet
Lest ye forget the magic
So kill and skin a pig for
Bacon Pancakes

Take some bacon and
I'll put it in a pancake
Bacon Pancakes

Please don't actually try
To cook to this song
'Cause we're not liable
If you burn your mom's house down
But then again
Bacon Pancakes are worth the risk
Bacon Pancakes!
Now it's time for you
To take it to the very next level
By making bacon by bakin bacon
Praying to the bacon gods
The be takin' the time to-
Line a sheet with foil
Place those bacon slices on top
Heat that oven up
And let that pig fat cook
"Oh my glob Melissa,
Like get your lumpy butt
Over here right now!"
They're putting bacon
In the pancakes could it be?
The greatest parts of breakfast
Joined in harmony!
