Is Brook Lopez better than Bill Russell?

I've seen Lopez play and there's no way anyone is better than him. Really. Come on, now. Don't any of you think so? :P

This question was inspired by KONJ:

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylc=X3oDM...

BQ: For those of you that weren't sure if I was joking, here's the real question I have. Based on how the season has gone, are the Celtics or Lakers better?

Update:

Thought that might cheer you up, KONJ. :D

As for the rest of you, did you guys not read the question properly or do you just not care? lol

Update 2:

lmao no one sees that it's a joke, I love it

    1) Bill Russell lead the University of San Francisco Dons to 2 NCAA Mens National Basketball Championships.

    2) Bill Russell lead the United States Men basketball Team to a Gold Medal in the 1956 Summer Olympics.

    3) Bill Russell lead the Boston Celtics to 11 NBA World Championships in his 13 Year NBA Career.

    Would you mind telling me, what exactly Brook Lopez has accomplished? I've seen Brook Lopex play in person and he is not all that.

    Well, we all know the answer to that, but Lopez does have some serious skill and is having a good season for the horrid Nets.

    BQ: Celtics are the better team thus far.

    Brook Lopez is good but he isn't THAT good.

    Why'd you think he didn't win ROY last year?
