The flip side is that a decrease in revenue would make their salaries smaller.  The readjustment of caps would lessen how much money they could actually earn.  This is out of the Celtics and the players' control in regards to the maximum, so a rebounding revenue as tensions in China lose traction could make those contracts ideal.

As of now, it will just make the current contracts that are above 30M very difficult to swallow.  Again, this is assuming that there is an actual decrease of 10-15%.   
Good points. Also, it wouldn't be just the Celtics affected by this. All teams would under any such decrease.

Yes, it would be league-wide.  Certain situations will cause teams to benefit or harmed given the contract situations they hold.  Just as the 2016 TV revenue disrupted the balance which benefitted teams with cap space or max contracts recently paid, an event where there is a decrease could really harm teams or give others an advantage.  My guess, in this case, max contracts recently signed are going to be a burden to teams (especially contenders) while new max contracts will have extra added value over the terms of the agreement.  In the Celtics case, Walker isn't a great contract, but Brown and Tatum could be set on good deals that provide a huge benefit over the next 5 years.
