"You ain't never going to get me to say nah," White said Wednesday.
Overall, White said things actually look pretty good for the Bulls despite all the rumors.
"Obviously, we've proved it. We've beaten really good teams this year. We've just got to continue to figure it out, make that push. We're still in the hunt. I think we're, like, two or three games out of sixth, so we're still in the hunt. We've just got to keep competing. Like I've said, I love being here. I love playing with these guys. We go out there every night and lay it on the line, and sometimes things don't go your way, and sometimes they do."
