He wants control. Now that Williams has assumed the point guard role, and he determines when Payton gets the ball, Payton is angry. Then when he did get the ball, he pressed to make things happen, which is a large reason he committed seven turnovers. Worse, he had only one assist. Things obviously are not working well for Seattle.
