Shikamaru vs. neji

Neji is intelligent too, maybe not as intelligent as Shikamaru but still intelligent non-the-less. The only way Shikamaru could win which is kinda cheesy is the shadow possession and make Neji smack his head against a wall like he did the girl sound ninja. Hell dude he couldn't even take down Temari. The only damage dealing jutsu he has is the one he picks up after the time skip and honestly in the manga I truly believe Neji would wipe the floor with Shikamaru. Also note that Shikamaru does not have much chakra so if Neji can find a way to out live the shadow possession jutsu I would say it is...

But I am curious... When Shikamaru banged the girl sound ninja's head against the wall nothing happened to him. HOWEVER when he binded Gaara and Naruto socked Gaara in the mug, Shikamaru felt every bit of that so I am a bit confused... If he uses the shadow possession he can not really do anything to Neji that wouldn't get done to himself. Unless he releases right before impact, I mean with every bit of speed and velocity he can muster making it impossible for Neji to dodge the blow.
