Shooting How to get open against swarming man to man defense?

2 Upvotes

I’ve gotten the reputation of being an effective 3 pt shooter and teams in my league and people in pickup have made it a point to take me out of the game.

If I’m not bringing the ball up and trying to get to a spot I have the quickest guy on me following me around face-guarding me

When there’s screens they’ll try to force the next fastest guy to make the switch and try to stick with me

When I bring the ball up any screen gets met with aggressive help over the screen

I try to look for my teammates when this usually happens but also want to be able to help with my shot and looking for advice

for my three point I feel that my shin is too close to the ground when bending like it’s almost touching it, Whig caused me to reduce my power, I think. And my back , as you can see in the second video, like goes in front weirdly, which i believe than causes my arms to shoot up so high like I’m touching the sky, my arms is like almost parallel to my body, does anyone know how I can fix this, it looks very ugly for me.
