Your code is correct, you might added widget after sink event. you have to add widget before sink event. just example:

Button  button=new Button("Click");
    Element buttonElement = button.getElement();
      RootPanel.get().add(button);
    Event.sinkEvents(buttonElement, Event.ONCLICK);
    Event.setEventListener(buttonElement, new EventListener() {

        @Override
        public void onBrowserEvent(Event event) {
            System.out.println("ok");
             if(Event.ONCLICK == event.getTypeInt()) {
                 Window.alert("ok");
                  System.out.println("CLICK");
             }

        }
    });
