Kobe Bryant confident Los Angeles Lakers can reach playoffs

Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant is adamant that his side have the quality on their roster to reach the playoffs in the 2015-16 season.

Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant has insisted that his side can bounce back to reach the playoffs next season.

The Lakers struggled immensely in the 2014-15 campaign as they won just 21 matches to finish bottom of the Pacific Division in the Western Conference.

However, Bryant is adamant that there is enough talent on the team to qualify for the post-season in the next campaign.

"We have talented players in their respective positions," Bryant told Yahoo Sports.

"We have some really young players. How exactly will the pieces of the puzzle fit? We really don't know. We are going to [training] camp trying to piece this together just like every other team does.

"We have to figure out what our strengths are, figure out what our weaknesses are. And every time we step on the court we are going to try to hide our weaknesses and step up to our strengths."

The Lakers have failed to reach the playoffs since the 2012-13 season.
