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 of 1 last year's playoffs. Despite his absence, the Bulls still managed a 45-37 record as the Number 5 seed in the East. The Bulls met the Brooklyn Nets in the first round, their first meeting since 1998, when the Nets were in New Jersey at the time. They won the series in seven games to advance to the next round to face the defending champions, the Miami Heat. However, the Heat would eventually win the series in five games, knocking the Bulls out of the playoffs.
