I interpreted this as Sakura not trusting Sasuke and not liking that he's here but she's trying to shield everyone but her and Naruto from the situation.

He is their teammate and his behavior will have to be dealt with by them. Saying anything but what she did would just attract attention to the situation, hence her lying to Sai about how she feels and Shikamaru's lying to Ino about the situation even though he knows what's up.

Sakura lied about being happy to see him and trusting him because it's no one but hers and Naruto's issue. Mostly Naruto's since she accepted his decision to let him handle it.

No - Sai wasn't 100% right in his analysis. I think he gets the jist of it, or perhaps most of it but not the entirety.

I tried writing it myself to explain but it turned out abolsute bollocks, so I copied and pasted this from wiki instead;

Sai is very observant, and is always focused on his missions. He pays a lot of attention to detail, allowing him to quickly notice if something is not as it appears, as shown from how he easily sees through Yamato's tricks. This awareness spans beyond the trials of duty, as Sai was later quick to understand the nature of Naruto's inner burden. What he failed to understand, however, was that Naruto was not trying to save Sasuke just for Sakura. Sai holds Naruto in high regard, and tries to assist Naruto whenever he's going through hardships.
He's like... a marriage councillor who has never been married. You can only get so much from textbook.

It's kind of sad but a main reason Sai exists is to be an interpreter for the Team 7 drama. He may miss small social queues and details but he has never been wholly wrong. He's said that Sakura's smile is fake so it's safe to assume that everything she said is in question.

Sakura has done this before too. She will lie to someone to avoid putting them in bad positions or hurting them. For some reason, she is lying about her real feelings for Sasuke.

I wonder though, what she believes herself. Is she in denial - is she flat out lying to Sai?

I agree though, if anyone can spot a fake smile it would be Sai. I think he picks up on physical tells exceptionally well but... he seems certain, so absolutely so, in his evaluations which sometimes miss out vital parts.

Nothing really proved she's over him. She just doesn't seem to trust him at this point and is afraid Sasuke might turn again.

And no offense to Kishi and Sakura fans but that is one ugly ass smile :/ even if it is fake...
I'm sorry but....he could've done better.
I'm a Sakura supporter, but YUP, that smile's ugly.

Lol sakura's.................
What's up with you and Sasukarin.......You're just like Karin ; 0;. Take dat as a compliment if you love her, but Karin makes Sakura look awesome, which is pretty goddamn hard to do most of the time...except right now don't even compare her to Karin , Puyu - _-... But she saved Tsunade! Tsunade did the healing herself she just landed her some chakra by lettin Tsunade bite her - 3-.
Karin has got some SERIOUS BDSM crap going on. She can have him. :dunno:
Yeah Karin should just take Sasuke I'm feelin sorry and bad for her (Sorry Sakura XD)

Sakura is in indecisive mode over Sasuke, this is not the first time its happen She loves Sasuke but won't stop Sasuke if He makes a wrong move. Why do you thing Sai commented on Sakura fake smile? Her love for Sasuke overrides Her common sense on matters over Sasuke. Love dose that to people.
EY, I support Naruhina AND Sasusaku. It's not her "common sense" It's just that she can't let go and is still in MADTARDLY<? in love with the Sasuke she knew before he left the village. Characters still partly believe in him, so there is some chance of "good" in him , but someone just gotta do some evil shit right now this shit's crazy weird.

Ps. Sai's just a Team 7 drama queen.

Sakura knows that Sasuke coming back to the 'good side' is too good to be true, but refuses to acknowledge it because she desperately wants things to return to the way it was.

I think she's over him (romantically) seeing as she didn't blindly trust and believe what he said, but she's definitely worried that she may never get to be with the old Sasuke again.

She might have been too infatuated with Sasuke in the past, but I think her recent feelings toward him have been more from a fellow (former) teammate who doesn't want to see him become like the people she is facing now (Obito & Madara).

Even if none of this proves to be the case, it seems like this would be the most believable thought process for good character development/growth in Sakura. However, I don't think she's over the old Sasuke (romantically). The conversation with the random admirer at the medical camp revealed the following manga page:
[video]http://94.23.34.161/manga/mangas/Naruto/540%20-%20Madara%27s%20Strategy!/01.png[/video]
It may be true that she is "over" the current Sasuke, but there's still a lingering compassion within Sakura's disposition.
Hence, I agree with the post above as being the most understandable development.

I wonder though, what she believes herself. Is she in denial - is she flat out lying to Sai?

Regarding the part in bold:
Oh, you mean just as many members of Narutobase jump to conclusions so quickly without substantial evidence?

Difference between having an opinion and palming things off as fact. Added bonus that my evaluation on something like Sakura being a useless twat has no effect on any current war.

No thats not the case... she can tell that he is up to no good because she knows him yet she wants to fool the others and also herself that he came back just like she wished for even though she actually knows better, so in a way she is protecting him, she lied for his sake.... so that the others wouldn't doubt his intentions (Juugo, Sai, Naruto, Shikamaru and Sakura are the only ones who suspect his intentions the others believe his words)

You know Naruto is all about bonds, Kishi stated that once in an interview and well its pretty obvious too so Sakuras bond to Sasuke won't be broken .. it wouldn't fit into "Naruto" since its all about protecting those important bonds no matter what comes

The Kages are coming but until they arrive to make a decision Battle lines may be drawn in the Alliance between Naruto and Sasuke, who will follow who?This puts added pressure on Sakura who wants a happy ending for all, but in life you seldom ever get a happy ending for everybody,somebody wins and somebody loses. Lets see how Kishi plays this out, it's going to be interesting indeed.

If Sakura takes Sasuke side for what ever reason, You Know Hinata will stand by Naruto, most of the Rockies would stand by Naruto but a few of the alliance might agree with Sasuke burn it down policy. A civil war in the making.
