Both barely managed to come out alive out from the attack so I find it hard to believe.He shot it because he knew Naruto could defend himself. Sasuke was testing Naruto by acting like he was going to kill him. Both didn't have the killing intent and Sasuke was discreet abut his feelings. If he wanted to kill Naruto he would have done that ages ago after that VOTE 1 fight.
I don't find anything in the entire VOTE 2 fight that even slightly implies that. Why didn't Kishi made it more clear after VOTE 2 when Sasuke confessed he lost and opened up to Naruto about his feelings. Kishi never did that, that tells you enough.
