Yes, the unblockable 7-foot fadeaway from the post is the most Dirk-esque. (Kobe was working on that shot too a bit before the aforementioned injury :) I don't see any reason Aldridge can't keep stretching his range to the 3-point line over time. He's a good FT shooter, makes very hard midrange shots look easy...it's probably just a matter of comfort level and reps to get him further from the hoop. Of course the Mavs also had Chandler, Coach Kidd, the Jet, Matrix, and Carlisle alongside Dirk that year...Portland is not there in terms of overall talent yet.
