"I don't want to be condescending in my remarks, but at the same time, we need these games to hone what we don't get to in training," Bruno said. "The teams we're going to have to beat in the end here, they train for years and they're together for years. ... It gives us the opportunity to have, if you will, some semblance of training. I'd hate to think we had to go play for medal play right now. We're not ready yet."
