Reentry heat disipation.

What do you think of this idea.

If a saucer shaped, or sphereical space craft was reentering Earths atmosphere,
(No I'm not talking about UFOs) could it effectively dissipate the heat by rotating the ship so that the heated leading edge is rotated to the rear where the temperature is much lower?
