Is It The Milwaukee Kings? Or The Sacramento Bucks? Eerie.

Once in a while, something quite eerie happens in the NBA. One of those things where you're not quite sure how it happens, but it happens.

I think the Milwaukee Bucks and the Sacramento Kings were separated at birth.

Think I'm nuts? Check this out.

Milwaukee's record: 15-19

Sacramento's record: 15-21

Milwaukee's point diff: -0.94

Sacramento's point diff: -1.8

YOUNG GUNS

Both teams feature a potential Rookie of the Year candidate who looks set to lead them for the next 10 years.

The Bucks had the early Rookie of the Year favorite, Brandon Jennings, who's resume included an NBA debut of 17pts, 9rebs and 9ast, and a 55-point explosion against the Warriors which legitimately put him on the map.

The Kings have the current ROY favorite in Tyreke Evans, who's consistency in putting up 20-5-5 numbers or thereabouts, as well as some clutch performances of late, have edged him ahead of Jennings.

Regardless of who wins the ROY, I'd say both teams are quite happy with their draft picks.

PRODUCTIVE YOUNG BIG MEN

The Bucks feature a former #1 overall pick, Andrew Bogut, who serves as the focal point of their interior offense. Bogut's averages this season of 15.4ppg, 9.9rpg and 1.9bpg make him a good complement to Jennings (statistically, anyway).

The Kings, meanwhile have PF Jason Thompson in their ranks, producing a very similar 14.4ppg, 9rpg and 0.9bpg.

INJURED-SHOOTERS-WHO-USED-TO-BE-THE-FRANCHISE-PLAYER

The Bucks have had Michael Redd, one of the game's best shooters, in and out of the lineup all season (and now he's out for the rest of the season). Redd's career averages? 20ppg, 4.1 rebs, 2 ast, 38% from 3pt.

The Kings had Kevin Martin for 5 games this season before suffering a wrist injury. Martin's career averages? 17.1ppg, 3.6reb, 1.8ast, 39.1% from 3pt.

Both teams are considering moving their injured shooters via trade, to "officially" hand the reigns over to their exciting rookie guards.

DEPENDABLE BACKUP GUARDS

The Bucks have Luke Ridnour, who was starting at PG before Jennings burst onto the scene. Ridnour, though, has continued to produce consistently, averaging 11pts and 3.8ast this season, despite not starting a single game.

The Kings have Beno Udrih, who was the lead PG before Evans burst onto the scene. Udrih, though, has continued to produce consistenly, averaging 13.8pts and 4.1ast this season, in 14 starts.

SURPRISINGLY EFFECTIVE SWINGMEN FROM OVERSEAS

The Bucks feature an unlikely contributor in Ersan Ilyasova (Turkey), who's averages of 11ppg, 7.1rpg, and 1.3 3pg have been a welcome contribution.

The Kings feature an unexpected contributor of their own in Omri Casspi (Israel), who's averages of 13ppg, 4.8rpg and 1.5 3pg have been a welcome contribution.

INCONSISTENT BIG MEN

The Bucks have Hakim Warrick who is capable of contributing on any given night. He is also capable of being a non-factor. His averages: 10.3ppg, 4.6rpg

The Kings have Spencer Hawes who is capable of contributing on any given night. He is also capable of being a non-factor. His averages: 10.8ppg, 5.9rpg

THERE'S MORE

What else do you want?

How about defensively gifted SF/PFs? Mbah Moute and Nocioni.

Perimeter players who can occasionally (very occasionally) contribute with outside shots and/or defense? Charlie Bell and Carlos Delfino/Ime Udoka and Sergio Rodriguez.

How about a once-upon-a-time-reasonably effective big man by the name of K.Thomas? Was that Kurt Thomas (Bucks) or Kenny Thomas (Kings)?

AND THE BEST FOR LAST:

As a Laker fan, I saved the best for last. Try Youtubing "Kobe vs Bucks 16 December 2009" and then "Kobe vs Kings 1 January 2010". Kobe's last second shot to break the hearts of Bucks and Kings fans also unite them in an eerie way. Then again, there's probably quite a few other teams that can share that pain...
