Vet DeMar DeRozan hits a milestone, as the Bulls down the Hawks 111-100

There’s a certain amount of knowledge that comes out of playing 1,000 NBA regular-season games.

Lesson No. 1 that DeMar DeRozan lives by? Stay out of front office business.

The veteran made that very clear on Monday, as DeRozan reached that 1,000-game milestone in helping the Bulls beat the visiting Atlanta Hawks 111-100 at the United Center.

“That’s a lot of [bleepin’] games, isn’t it?’’ DeRozan joked of hitting that mark.

What he was very serious about, however, was letting his front office figure out what they want to do with a Bulls team that has now won 11 of its last 17 games, climbing to 22-24 on the season.
