--explanation--

James uses the Second Conditional structure (It'd be great if we had...) to talk about a hypothetical situation.

The structure of the Second Conditional is: It would + base verb... if + subject + verb in the Simple Past. It is used to describe unreal or hypothetical situations in the present or future. For example:

We would finish earlier if we had more team members. - This means they don't have more team members, but if they did, they could finish earlier.
