Boruto isn't important in Shikamaru's objectives because he is just the son of the Hokage. Any ninja can succeed Naruto, that's what he thinks. If he dies, well, let's bury him, let Naruto mourn, and let business continue. In the shinobi world, the strong live, the weak die. Because if you remember during the episode where Shikamaru's dying because of lose of chakra, he was all like, 'He's here for me and is going WAY out of his way to help make sure I make it, I gotta be there for him too and he wants me to live so I can't give up either.' If he was selfish or...well 'selfish' then he would have just let himself die and be able to be with his dad. But he saw just how determined Naruto was and he was one of the first people that ever gave Naruto a chance and said long before any of the war stuff happened that he'd follow Naruto anywhere. So Naruto probably isn't 'just' a boss to him.

And uncaring and lazyness are two VERY different things. When lazy, you might not care about many THINGS (I'd put it underlined if we had the option), but you know when to care even more about your friends than you usually do, while in times of need.

Temari though...I sadly agree with you on that one.
