"Stan Van Gundy saw a bunch of positives from the Orlando Magic's 118-104 win over the Houston Rockets on Saturday night.

One of them: Hedo Turkoglu's performance.

Turkoglu carved up the Rockets defense even though he was matched up initially against Shane Battier, one of the sport's best wing defenders.

Van Gundy liked that Turkoglu made smart plays in the pick-and-roll game. For example, when Battier went under on the pick-and-roll — essentially attempting to prevent a drive to the hoop — Turk utilized the extra space and took an open shot.

Turk finished with 21 points on 8-of-11 shooting. He also compiled five assists without a turnover."
