See, that's the other thing; I LOVE NaruSaku as BFFs. They're absolutely adorable together in THAT sense. Romantically? *shakes head* I know Kishimoto will ruin it completely. Naruto will be the big He-Man and Sakura will quietly follow along with whatever he says. She'll go from being a capable young woman who can take care of herself to relying solely on Naruto to get the job done. Just watch; I'd bet my stash of porn that if this goes canon Kishimoto will do JUST that.
But as friends... they're fantastic. I like the idea very much of Team Kakashi being Naruto's family. It's something he's sort of needed/wanted, and to me it's ruining that by putting him with Sakura. Sure, as a first crush it's fine... but in canon? The family dynamic loses its touchingness.
I think Hinata said that she was being selfish because she was stepping in for HER personal reasons rather than village reasons. She was fighting because she loved naruto, not because Pain just destroyed her home.
