Never saw a big man do what Cliff did on that last shot. He was all over multiple shooters in the lane and on the perimeter. Amazing athletic play. Well done.
Fantastic D by Cliff on Last Play

Totally agree that Cliff's D sealed the win for us. He was all over the place.
His athleticism is crazy. I just timed the video of him tipping the three. He was still in the paint about 0.7 seconds before the shot was released. Insane.
Great summary here (second Tweet will not send you to Twitter):
What Cliff did in those 8 seconds was absolutely incredible. He wanted that stop and he got it.
Just surprised that the ref on the other side of court didn’t call a 3 foul shot on him even though he didn’t get within 5’ of the shooter. Our normal road call jinx.
yes he did. Wow. I didn't see the 2nd half so that's my first look at that effort/play. Thank you Cliff.
Tks for posting this. His reaction to follow the pass out to the wing was exceptional. Most guys would just watch. Replayed it multiple times for family members until they said “ok, great play, got it.”
Cliff showing so much desire to win there. Pike will probably fall asleep tonight watching this a thousand times 
And he hit both of his foul shots. That's another way he saved the game!
If there is an award for the defensive play of the year that would be it. No doubt.
That block is Caleb’s block on the breakaway dunk against OSU last year. Season saver
It was a tremendous athletic hair on fire sequence.
If he didnt miss 3 layups and a dunk he wouldnt have had to come up big at the end.
I rewatched it after seeing this thread title and you’re absolutely right. Impressive (season rescuing?) D by Cliff!
You were dropped on your head as a kid, weren't you?
There is no doubt that gumper hates this team...
Proves it multiple times a week
Your the type of fan that even if a player is playing bad everything is ok, where I on the other hand will call them out for their bad play. It doesnt mean I hate the team, I just have a more realistic approach instead of thinking everything is great all of the time.
It’s the B1G. They would give the award to Edey for blocking a shot without his feet leaving the ground.
If everyone on the team hit 100% of their shots we would have won by 50
Not everyone’s shots were 2 ft from the basket like these were, also not everyone is 6’11
I feel I’m pretty objective too. But this is just a dumb mindset. If you’re gonna call out those few plays go back through literally every millisecond of the game and analyze it all in totality. You could make this same comment about every single player in every single game, both positive and negative… “oh well we wouldn’t even be in this position if he didn’t make that dunk at 12:43 in the first half.” Or… “oh well we wouldn’t need this play to be made if he didn’t miss that jumper at 19:02 in the first half.”
I vote that any time a kid gets dropped on their head we say they got billigumped from here to eternity.
And what if James Naismith never invented basketball? None of us would be here talking about this game.
Especially you, id imagine.
He didn’t have a great game. But he had a good enough game for us to win. And he made a huge defensive play when it mattered most.
You can butterfly affect the outcome if you want. Or you can just put your energy into not being a curmudgeon and be glad we won.
Nah we'd be too busy dealing with spam from SantaFeScarlet and ScarletLongIsland and Rutgers56.
Actually you're full of crap. You say you are realistic but you're wrong on everything. How is that realistic? I get on this team and criticize them when needed. You are just an a-hole that comes out of the fking shadows every time this team trips up...like a cockroach.
