That would be obvious without need of description. However, a "clean play" is usually referred to when the defender's handle the ball with no bobbles, drop, slips or error (generically, not as scoring a play).
Just because the defense does their job without mistakes does not mean the defense gets the call.
Thus the reason I asked for a definition.
