There is no five second closely guarded rule in the NBA. The closest rule is the five second back to basket count...a player with the ball in his frontcourt below the free throw line extended may not dribble the ball with his back or side to the basket for longer than five seconds. The count ends when he goes above the FT extended, the dribble ends, or the defense deflects the ball away.
There's no need for a closely guarded count in the NBA because the shot clock is 24 seconds...plus the game is a lot quicker than other levels.
