Isiah Thomas is working for Madison Square Garden Chairman James Dolan again - this time to run the WNBA's New York Liberty. Thomas will serve as the Liberty's president, with responsibility for basketball and business operations, the team said Tuesday. ''We talked about the ideas and the way that there was a growth opportunity for the New York Liberty. It's something I wanted to be a part of.'' Dolan's Knicks didn't win a single playoff game during Thomas' stint as team president from December 2003 to April 2008 despite regularly owning the NBA's highest payroll.
