More like chosen because of Sasuke which is funny because Naruto is the main character after all. Naruto was the looser in their class so they were in a same group.

Because Kakashi said that Sasuke is like him and no one at that time could train Sasuke better than him.

Come to think about it that is pretty true, if it was asuma or Guy, sasuke would have left the village ages before he did

its all there when the Third Made the decision. the third knew that the only way for naruto to inherit most of his fathers legacy, was to be taught by one who was taught by his father :) simple enough

Didnt they say early on that they made the squads based upon strengths and weakness and I'm sure they paired squads up with a captain who can manage and utilize the squad in the most efficent way. seeing as how team kakashi is basically a reconstruct of team minato its kind of safe to say that its based upon cumulative knowledge and experience with given personality types.

Actually, i had ALWAYS thought that Kakashi was Naruto's sensei because naruto was Minato's son. i mean, that's the only reason the great Legendary Sannin Jiraiya took care of him and taught him to summon and taught him Rasengan and when he was done, he told kakashi "ok, i'm leaving naruto with you now, so you take care of him." I mean Jiraiya could've left him with anyone--Konoha has lots of great teachers and anyone would be honored by the request of the Legendary Sannin himself...

i mean Kakashi admitted he wasn't the best of teachers (afterall, not ONE group EVER passed his genin tests until naruto's group did with disobeying his orders in bell training and giving naruto their lunch) and he was especially not the best for naruto at that point in time cuz of their personalities--all naruto wanted to do was train and get strong while kakashi wanted to read icha-icha and fap.

i think Jiraiya/Kakashi both sorta felt it was therir duty to train/protect their sensei's child.

anyways, i said a lot but my whole point was that i had always thought Kakashi and Jiraiya (minato's student and teacher) were his caretakers cuz he was Minato's son, but Kakashi was first cuz he had to wait for Jiraiya to get his ass outta bed to train.

of course, i could be wrong and it could all be coincidence, but personally i don't think it was coincidence at all. that's my 2 cents. i need those 2 cents back later though cuz i need everything i got for gas to get my car started
