Should I try to help get TINY stack out of the way?

Sometimes I have some trouble when a tiny stack is all in. Here is a hand from party poker. I have built a nice stack since bubble. The villain in this hand just push last hand w T9s and win a war against K7s. Of course I am pleased with that and the TINY stack has 70 chips and posted all his money in sb this hand.

Seat 1: hero (3750)
Seat 2: villain (4180)
Seat 5: TINY stack (70)
TINY stack posts small blind (70)
Hero posts big blind (500)

I have JTo and villain min raise, what’s your move and why?

This is an interesting situation. The most the tiny stack can win is 70 of your chips, so villian can raise with any 2 and if you lay down he wins 430. I don't think he will care if he knocks out the tiny stack. I would say you should play this the same as you would heads up, forget about the tiny stack. Would you lay down j 10 to a min raise heads up? I think I would call and see if I can flop something and then play it from there.
