i mean, shouldn't he realize that he is the yuusule donkachi?
besides the fact that he gets his ego satisfaction from sakura, deep down he should be training harder than Lee in order to not suck.
Sasuke sucks in having no idea where he stands
Edit: I'm an idiot.

Actually Sasuke does trains very very hard everyday, just not as the level of Rock Lee.

Rock Lee is the "Genius of hard Work".

No doubt, that Sasuke trains hard everyday, he's not a lazy bum. Just that geniuses take less time from getting to A-C with without needing to go to B. So we perceive that he's lazy. Just look at how he gets to be as fast as Rock Lee in one month compared to Rock taking years.

Plus, also his innate desire to kill his brother or to push him to be better than his brother motivates him.
