The 2012–13 Chicago Bulls season was the 47th season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA). Derrick Rose missed the entire season while still recovering from a torn ACL in which he sustained during Game 1 of last year's playoffs. Despite his absence, the Bulls still managed a 45-37 record as the Number 5 seed in the East. The only highlights of this season were the Bulls ending a 27-game winning streak of the defending champion Miami Heat and a 13-game winning streak of the New York Knicks in order to become the second team in league history to snap two winning streaks of 13 or more games. In the playoffs, after defeating the Brooklyn Nets in a tough seven-game first round series, the Bulls were eliminated in the next round by the Heat in five games. Miami would eventually win their second consecutive title after defeating the San Antonio Spurs in seven games.
