What would be the point of spoofing the source IPs to be identical?
You're just making the attack trivial to block.  Plus you could never
do any kind of TCP session attack, since you can't complete a

Attempt At A DDoS).:)

Reflection attack as a secondary goal against the spoofed source IP? Primary goal would be a SYN flood of many servers.
