5 card plo preflop situation

Dealt to Hero: As 5c Jd Js Ah

HERO Raises To $1.75, BTN Calls $1.75, SB Folds, BB Raises To $7.25, HERO Raises To $23.75, BTN Folds, BB Calls $16.50

BB shows: 6d Ad Qh Jh Kh

I think BB's three bet is a little optimistic. In order to three bet in this configuration I think we want more like AdTdKQJ w/ hearts, and maybe not all three hearts. Having KQJhhh is pretty bad because it eliminates pretty much any chance of someone having a pay off hand. Also BB has less incentive to three bet in general. Also my open might be tighter than optimal, so people should three bet me a bit less, or with different types of hands.

Or maybe BB just shouldn't three bet much at all in this situation. He has the advantage of getting pot odds on the call. And is closing the action.
