@Minato 87 If memory serves me correctly Kakashi said to Sasuke that he could only do 4 Lightning Blades a day. So if Gaara can keep Kakashi at bay long enough and gets him to exhaust a few of them it isn't so one sided a fight.

Remember this is a fight where neither one has prior knowledge, this is more of a handicap to Kakashi than it is to Gaara. Summoning Ninken and Chakra Reserves also happen to be kindly meaningless on Kakashi's end as the sand shield will prevent the dogs from attacking him and the Chakra reserves are bigger on Gaara's end as he is the 1 tails Jinchuriki.

Also I would love to see how long Kakashi could hold against Kimimaro. Sure Gaara would have died if Kimimaro hadn't died seconds earlier but I'm pretty sure Kakashi would have already been dead by that point.

I think you're underestimating Gaara here. Not that I am necessarily disagreeing with the general outcome. Just pointing that out.
