That's like asking if Ron Artest can steal a car and assault a woman.
I don't think he ever has. He has given tickets away on the way to Bulls games, and also attacked a fan that poured a cup of beer on him as he was at the scorers table. Try again, c***.
It's okay to not be afraid to call it like it is!
There's a video of Amy Acuff dunking...barely, with a running start and no one else on the floor. My guess is that unless Blanka has freakishly small hands, she can dunk.
I am 6'4 like Vlasic and have pretty bad ups, but I can dunk. I cannot jump anywhere near as high as Blanka Vlasic. She could do a 2-handed dunk with ease, and could probably learn a lot of fancy stuff if she wanted to. There are plenty of male NBA players who can't palm the ball.

I recall that Dwight Stones claimed he could not dunk.
"There are plenty of male NBA players who can't palm the ball."
I find this difficult to believe--I'm 5'10" and I can palm a basketball very strongly.
Examples?

Dwight Stones talks a lot. There is no way he couldn't dunk. Considering that merely extending his arm upward as he cleared his highest height would be at 10'.
You don't need to palm a basketball to be able to dunk.
In high school and college I was obseseed with trying to dunk At 5'8" I finally did it during my sophmore year. I'm lucky I can palm a softball!
I think she can dunk over Blake Griffin if she wanted to. She can clear her entire body over a height of 6' 10".

Just because she can get her center of mass over 6'10" does not mean she can jump high enough to dunk. And it's totally possible Stones wasn't able to dunk. But I do agree he talks WAY too much... If I had a dime for every time he says "Look at him lifting in the last 100!"....

You don't understand basic physics. She can lift her entire body to over 6'10". She can at least jump 3 or 4 feet straight up standing. She's 6'4" and add 2 or 3 feet for the length of her outstretched arm. Add all that and she can easily go over 10 feet basket rim. Even the lower limit gives you 6'4" + 3 (standing jump) + 2 (outstretched arm) = 11'4".
AT 5'10" I once did a semi-dunk. I was able to hold a basketball straight up, run, jump, roll the ball off my fingers, and get the tips of three fingers around the edge of the rim. If that qualifies as a dunk then Vlasic can dunk with ease.

Her center of mass is NOT clearing 6'10".
so high jump physics is the same as physics for dunking a basketball...
I'm not doubting she can dunk, she's 6'4". But the contention that dunking is a given for someone who can high jump 6'10" is not accurate.
Stones jumped 7'7". By your logic, since his c of m is at 7'7" with 2 feet extra in his body and 2 feet for his reach, he would be able to dunk 11'7".
Stones said he couldn't dunk. And I don't get physics...
sorry, your right. still doesn't mean she can dunk.
This is the stupidest post and argument ever. Obviously none if you have spent time around an athletic female who is 6'4 or taller. Of course she can dunk. This is stupid.

Actually, he attacked a completely innocent man sitting near the man who threw the beer at him.
