The 2010–11 Chicago Bulls season was the 45th season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA).
The Bulls won their 8th division title this season and finished with the best record in the NBA but fell short to the Miami Heat in the Eastern Conference Finals. It is the first time since 1975 that the Bulls failed to follow up a division title with an NBA title (that year, the Bulls were in the Midwest Division).
In the playoffs, the Bulls defeated the Indiana Pacers in five games in the First Round, defeated the Atlanta Hawks in six games in the semifinals, before losing to the Miami Heat in five games in the Conference Finals. The Heat would eventually lose 4-2 to the Dallas Mavericks in the NBA Finals to win their first championship title.
As of 2018, this is the only time in the post-Michael Jordan era where the Bulls have made the Conference Finals.
