Coaches use timeouts far too early in my opinion generally in a 2 minute situation. With 3 timeouts left in the last 20 seconds, you should easily be able to run at least 3 plays.

We lost this game in the 1st half, not in the final minute.

I agree - I sort of thought he should have called a timeout sooner, but time really wasn't really a big factor there. A time out might have been useful for thinking up a better play perhaps but not because of time.
