Not quite, Obito predicted the slash (MS) and knew he should counter after he used Kamui intangibility, with Kamui warping. All he had to do was reach out his hand and time the grab(closing his hand). Which he could gauge before since he knows Minato. There is no foot-speed involved. Excellent point. I think the sharingan is often forgotten but it's predicability is a big deal, plus obito's insight into his former master would have given him the advantage there. lol if obito didn't have kamui I'm certain after gauging him minato would have used his top speed against him without any worry, because if your opponent can't react then there is no reason to worry about tunnel vision. I'm certain Obito is fast just by virtue of having hashirama cells but nothing says he is as fast minato.
