I absolutely agree. His only weakness is that he was Naruto's and Sasuke's teacher and at some point, had to look pathetically weak when compared to them. The same happened with Jiraiya and Orochimaru, who only went down due to plot (Jiraiya not knowing Pain's secret (they even said he would've won if he knew about it) and Orochimaru being weakened when Sasuke defeated him (he even said himself he would've have stood a chance if Orochimaru would've been at full power)). Kakashi has to be weak, otherwise Naruto and Sasuke would'nt seem strong. It's plot, nothing else.
