Didn't need to be near-perfect but needed to be good. This wasn't good. But proud of the season. And proud of Oliver - he had a great game to go out on.
We were in it right into the last 2 minutes. Pierre needed to do a post move instead of passing to Pollard. That could have got us within 6 with enough time left. Beyond that, our last few possessions were wayyyy too slow. Needed to rush some threes to speed the game up. If we missed, it would have sealed our fate sooner. But playing more slowly just made the loss more certain.
In any case, even with a good game it would have been tough to pull it out.
