After a 97-95 win over Sacramento Kings in 2014 Global Games on Sunday, Brooklyn Nets point guard Deron Williams showed his satisfaction with the team chemistry after some newcomers joined in during the offseason.

"It's good. We have to become better, and that's the preseason is all about: to build the chemistry and find the rhythm," said Williams.

Williams experienced a lackluster 2013-14 season, averaging 14.3 points and 6.1 assists, the lowest since his rookie season in 2005-06, while playing hurt most of the year. He goes into this season healthier, looking to regain his All-Star form.

"I need to play well for the team win," he said.

Williams also showed his excitement about playing in Beijing again, where he got the gold medal with Team USA in Olympics six years ago.

"I expect it to be another big game. I played there before in Olympics, so I'm excited about that," added Williams.

Ramon Sessions, the Kings' new point guard, displayed his hot momentum on Sunday, combining for 33 points with another newcomer in the same position, Darren Collison.

"I have played whether as a starter or a substitute before in my career. I don't mind whether to be a starter. All is about the team win," said Sessions.

Sessions has been to China before. What's his best memory here?

"I've been to the Great Wall in Beijing, and it's exciting to go there," he said.
