5NL TPGK vs. aggro and a TAG 5NL TPGK vs. aggro and a TAG

I need help playing in these spots the SB is the aggro who never folds, raises if checked to and would reraise alot of river bets.

The BTN is a TAG I have played with before. They just played a pot with SB and bet every street and got SB to finally fold to river bet.

I have been playing tight, very tight since SB arrived.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.05 BB (6 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

Button ($6.80)
SB ($7.50)
Hero (BB) ($4.88)
UTG ($5)
MP ($1.90)
CO ($4.66)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A, Q
3 folds, Button bets $0.20, SB calls $0.18, Hero calls $0.15

Flop: ($0.60) A, 7, J (3 players)
SB checks, Hero checks, Button bets $0.45, SB calls $0.45, Hero ?

My Question about play on flop is I have to decide now if I am going to play this hand thru the river. I am seein the 2 hearts and the J and thinking I have 2 clubs. I just have TPGK on a very drawy board. Do I raise to like 2.00 and become pot committed, shove because a raise commits me if called or fold?

Pre flop I called because I didn't think a standard raise wouldn't get any folds and I would have to play this hand OOP in a 3 bet pot. I called this hand in this spot to hit 2 pair or TP with a flush draw vs aggro.

should I have made a squeeze play pre flop and raise to 1.00 and try to get HU with SB and then jam this flop?
What are your thoughts?

You should reraise preflop since the btn is tag whos prolly opening up wide(eg. AX which you have crushed) or is probably just trying to steal. So you would probably get him to fold, and then you would have position on the aggro.
Flop....why wouldn't you bet here with TP on a twotone board? Again you'd prolly get rid of the btn with a good size bet like .50c then value bet the aggro on subsequent streets if flush doesnt complete.
