Despite the abundant literature on the subject appeared in the last few years, the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) is probably the one for which a complete understanding is not yet available. As an example, an unsolved theoretical issue is related to the construction of a discrete kinetic theory which yields \textit{exactly} the fluid equations, i.e., is non-asymptotic (here denoted as \textit{LB inverse kinetic theory}). The purpose of this paper aims at investigating discrete inverse kinetic theories (IKT) for incompressible fluids. We intend to show that the discrete IKT can be defined in such a way to satisfy, in particular, the requirement of \emph{completeness}, i.e., {\it all} fluid fields are expressed as moments of the kinetic distribution function and {\it all} hydrodynamic equations can be identified with suitable moment equations of an appropriate inverse kinetic equation IKE.
