Jing Sasuke was reading Gaara movements that's why he said if it wasn't for these eyes I'd be dead right now.
I said it once I'll say it again when Sasuke faught Sakon we didn't know anything about him so of course it looked like his attacks had no effect but later on we learned that Ukon is able to block for him. Common sense tells us that Ukon blocked the lion combo.
I don't think were giving Kimimaro too much credit but rather stating the facts based off what we have seen of him during battle. I agree with you on Sasuke being able to read Kimimaro's movements but he can only use the sharingan for so long.

You have to remember that Sasuke was barely able to evade Gaara's attacks. Kimimaro is faster than Gaara which would def make it harder for Sasuke to read his movements.

Sasuke would prob give him a good fight but in the end he will end up jus like Naruto did OWNED. (If only I knew how to take screen shots from the anime and paste them here)[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
