Serious or Sarcastic?

Let's play a game.
I am going to make a series of statements regarding game two of the eastern confrence finals.
Each statement will be preceded with the word "shocker" (denoting how surprising the statement is).
Your job is to then guess whether I am being serious or sarcastic.

Are you ready?
Let's begin.

Shocker:
The Bulls/Heat series is tied 1-1

Shocker:
After LeBron and Wade combined for 28 points on 12-32 shooting (37.5%) in a game one loss, they combined for 54 points on 20-37 shooting (54%) in a game two win.


Shocker:
After having 15 points, 6 rebounds, and 6 assists in game one, LeBron had 29 points, 10 rebounds, and 5 assists in game two.

Shocker:
LeBron James was clutch and closed out game two. He carried the Heat down the stretch, scoring 9 of his team's last 12 points after the game was tied with 4:30 to play.

Shocker:
Three of LeBron's four field goals down the stretch were jump shots.
Two of his jumpers were mid-range jump shots.


Shocker: Luol Deng did not outplay LeBron James in game two.





Shocker:

The Heat out-defended the Bulls.



Shocker:
Derrick Rose shot 7-23, finishing with 21 points, 6 rebounds, and 8 assists.

Shocker:
As Derrick Rose goes, so does the Bulls.
Derrick Rose had trouble getting into the paint and scoring, therefore the Bulls had trouble producing points.

Shocker:
It looked like the Bulls could have used another playmaker on the floor.



Shocker: The Heat out-rebounded the Bulls, 45-41, in game two.



Shocker:
Udonis Haslem was a difference maker for the Heat, scoring 13 points on 5-10 shooting.

Shocker:
Udonis Haslem dunked on Keith Bogans.

Shocker:
Udonis Haslem dunked on Derrick Rose.



Shocker: 
Only 9/15 of these statements are sarcastic.
