I even made a theory about it :

check it if you want to
No time now sorry.

well you have a point about strength in numbers, but Neji still has a chance if he played his cards right. once the puppets get near him, he can just perform Rotation to blast and destroy them. and if more puppets attacked to overwhelm the Rotation. he can just stop Rotating and dodge the attacks for a while, then when he gets near some puppets again, he can just perform another Rotation to blast and destroy again. and he has ShunShin, Air Palm and his Jyuken is able to cut the Chakra threads and he can prevent Sasori from reattaching his puppets. and his Rotation size is on par with Hiashi's so he would be able to take many puppets each time he perform a Rotation

he can just keep using this strategy till he make his way through to Sasori. so I doubt that 100 puppets would be enough, the only problem here is the Iron Sand, so if he managed to take the 3rd KazeKage puppet then he take this, if not. then he loses badly
I don't see why Sasori couldn't reatach the threads? Even if they get cut he can reattach them just like we saw it happen a million times. Threads aren't something expendable, they're the user's chakra. So long as Sasori has chakra, he can keep reattaching them.

And I don't think the rotate-dodge-rotate combo would work. We're not talking Storm game where the AI just does the same things over and over. When dodging, you're put in the disadvantage, your enemy is dictating your movements and given the huge amount of weapons Sasori controls synonimusly he could put Neji into a check mate position. One possible scenario would be get him mid-air (which we know will happen with every anime dodge ever) and put a coat of iron sand to the bottom of the trajectory to which Neji would land. Alternatively, he could just wait for the moment when Neji's rotation runs out and attack from all sides in that instant - something noone can avoid unless they can teleport or slip through things.

The point is that you shouldn't just assume Neji could keep repeating the same thing while Sasori blindly uses the same moves. Those puppets are incredibly versatile and Sasori won't just barge into a rotation. People tend to forget that the only reason Chiyo and Sakura managed to dodge them so well was because they were masterful dodgers (or atleast Chiyo was).

As for Kazekage, Iron Sand isn't a one shot thing. Even if Neji fends off one blow, the sand doesn't get destroyed, it simply strikes back. That's what makes it so deadly in the first place. Also you need to take into account the poison gas of that puppet and it's 1000 arms. That's a lot of attacks and I'll say it again, even the slightest one connecting is enough. We have no reason to think Neji could dodge all the things thrown and this is irrelevant of whether Sasori knows about the blind spot or not. (Even Kidomaru learned about it only after he managed to land a blow.)

and there is also a lot of measures we didn't count, like their Condition, The Starting distance and the Intel

if Sasori started with Hiruko, Neji can just destroy it with Rotation and Sasori would evade. and if Sasori started with his puppet form, then an Air Palm pointed to his heart would take him down
That's assuming Neji could get close which I don't at all think he could do easily. The only reason Sakura managed to destroy it was because Chiyo helped her dodge those needles - again dodging skill level which Neji just doesn't have. The hyuuga are hand to hand combatants, when it comes to slipping projectiles their bet is rotation, but again, you can't move under rotation nor can you see what's going on that well. (Already a huge down-side as you have a still target to which you can slip a lot of things.)

And no, I highly doubt an air palm would be enough to destroy his heart considering how he can simply dodge it and I don't even think the damage would be that great. Air palm isn't a killer jutsu and his heart isn't a normal one.

if the starting distance is close, then I think that Neji can take this. if it is far, then Sasori definitely take this, if it is mid, then it can go either way
But that's the thing, Sasori doesn't fight close range. His fighting style is move away and release hellfire on your enemy. As for mid, I believe Sasori can fly with those chainsaws so I don't think getting out range would be a problem.

and about the Intel, Neji can have it in the heat of the battle with his Byakugan, but I doubt that Sasori would be able to have any about the blind spot, since I doubt he would be able to land an attack, since Neji can perform Rotation here

well... that would make his chances low.

and @bold two Rotation was able to bounce a Juubi's hand, a hand when it was in a lower form had easily rebounded a Tailed Beast Bomb with a flick [ ], besides that there is more Chakra emitted in a bigger Rotation so that would mean it has a thicker layer of Chakra than a normal sized Rotation (but it's problem that it would take more Stamina). so yeah you can say that it is durable enough to repel Sasori's Iron Sand. however it have shown to overwhelmed by numbers , so you have a point there
Again, Iron Sand isn't a one-shot thing. He can keep attacking with it and distribute it evenly for the right moment when Neji's rotation is running out.

byakugan hands down enables him to track down Deidara's bomb, and with acouple of Jyuuken, he is likely more than armed to render them useless
Except Deidara can detonate them at will, so he'd just blow them up before Neji got a chance to "deactivate them" not to mention he has no way of striking Deidara himself.

Yeah sure. Still Neji would try. Isn't intellect a factor in this? Neji was a jonin the best i remember
