My thoughts on this is that the banner looks more like an ad compared to a half banner. In the adsense publishing world, the more your ads don't look like an ad, the better it will perform.
Based on experience Banner and Half Banner do well after blog posts. Best if you could squeeze it after the post and before the part of the blog entry about comments and permalinks. That way, the ad looks like it is still part of the content.
