for someone who said the he couldn't beat Naruto (after the fight with Neji) it seems that Shikamaru had a sudden increase in thinking abilities and in self confidense

Of course he realizes he cant beat naruto, why? because he is so smart he realizes that naruto is the main character of the show, thats pretty dam smart, hehe.

seriously though naruto is pretty smart strategy wise too(not near shika but still) and one touch from rasengan and theyd be mopping up shikamaru parts off the floor.
