OAKLAND, Calif. — The video room at the Golden State Warriors’ practice facility has the general dimensions and, for much of the season, the atmospheric conditions of an industrial-size freezer. There is enough space for a couple of desks, some computer monitors, an assortment of sneakers and an exposed bundle of cables that must be some sort of fire hazard.

For a team with several future Hall of Famers and a running collection of N.B.A. championships, Golden State has made the room decidedly no-frills. Its appearance also camouflages its importance. The Warriors, like many teams, devour game film. Coaches dissect clips of opponents with forensic detail. Players study possessions every day.

The job of editing and organizing all that footage belongs to James Laughlin, the team’s 29-year-old video coordinator, and two 26-year-old colleagues: Jacob Rubin, a basketball operations assistant, and Nick Kerr, the assistant video coordinator and Coach Steve Kerr’s son. They spend months on their computers swimming through a sea of back cuts and outlet passes, downloading the clips onto hard drives and shipping them off to their superiors for closer examination.

“The main thing we want to do is make every coach’s life as easy as possible,” Laughlin said, “especially Steve’s life.”
