The Chain Reaction of a Super-Five-by-Five!

TNT broadcast studio.

The moment Kenny Smith saw Zhou Ze record a quintuple-double, he passed out on the spot.

His old partner Charles Barkley, as if he had planned it all along, hurried over to support him.

"Buddy, what's wrong?"

"Are you addicted to kissing donkey butts? Are you already dying to go... kiss one?"

Charles Barkley said in an exaggeratedly comical tone.

Kenny Smith, who had pretended to faint for the sake of the show, truly could not hold back his laughter.

That was right, Kenny Smith had been faking it.

However...

At the Detroit Pistons' home arena, Pistons head coach John Kuester, sitting on the bench, had genuinely been angered into fainting by his own players.

A quintuple-double!

Ah!!!

One more double than a quadruple-double!

A quadruple-double was already shocking enough.

But now, right in front of the Detroit Pistons he led, Zhou Ze had put up an unprecedented quintuple-double.

How could he possibly have the face to continue coaching this team?

The more he thought about it, the more suffocated Pistons head coach John Kuester felt, until he fainted.

This caused a commotion throughout the arena.

The fans all stood up and craned their necks to look at the unconscious head coach—John Kuester.

The arena's medical staff also rushed over immediately with a stretcher.

The game was over!

138 vs. 80!

The game ended with the Lakers crushing the Detroit Pistons, making them ordinary VIPs of the [58 Club].

To be fair, not every team could become an honored super VIP like the New Orleans Hornets. First, you had to make the playoffs. Second, you had to lose to the Los Angeles Lakers by 58 points.

For an Eastern Conference team, that meant making it to the Finals.

31 points, 13 rebounds, 12 assists, 10
